Such drills have been designed to improve cooperation and integration between the two components, and are aimed at developing the capability to “project” troops ashore using inflatable boats, for covert insertion onboard a submarine in the landing zone.

Training activities initially conducted alongside the quay were followed by the operational phase of open sea exercises, including submarine escape and infiltration in the area of operations.

The first landing exercise was conducted in January, off the Cheradi Islands. Once ashore, the Parachute Swimmers team went through the following phase of the training activity, and took part in an amphibious exercise of the1st San Marco Marine Regiment, performing recognition and fire support tasks.

Other two submarine landing exercises were conducted in March, the first one in front of the harbour of Augusta, the second off Chiatona (Taranto), including short-range reconnaissance ashore.

In these cases, setting up operational scenarios to enable personnel to train in extremely realistic environments is key to achieving the highest level of cooperation and operational readiness of specialised components.
