In 1940 the General
Staff of the United States announced a competition for the construction of a
light vehicle with four-wheel drive that could serve for many purposes. The
tender was attended by the American Bantam Company, the Willys Overland Motor
and Ford Motor Co. The choice fell on the Willys, which, after a pre-production
of 1500 vehicles in 1941 the vehicle was put on the assembly lines and produced
in 640,000 units, 277,000 of which were produced from Ford.
This was the reason why the "Jeep" was the vehicle
mostly produced from the military industry during WWII. Immediately after the
war, the Carabinieri Army were equipped with Jeeps from various A.R.A.R. camps
(camps where Italian, German and allies military vehicles left on the Italian
peninsula at the end of the war were collected). They remained in service until
the beginning of the 50s, when the vehicles began to fail without hope of
repair efficiently.

The AB 412 is a medium twin-engine helicopter manufactured
by Agusta Westland under license from Bell Helicopter. Directly derived from
the Bell 212, it is characterized by the adoption of the composite four-blade
main rotor. The AB 412 rapidly became a commercial success and nowadays it is
used to perform either civil or military duties. Military versions are used for
the transport of troops, up to 14 soldiers on board, or for the medical
evacuation (Medevac) through the possibility of carrying up to six stretchers.
The AB 412, thanks to its extraordinary flexibility, can be used in operations
of environmental protection, firefighting tasks, and in search and rescue
duties.
The AB 412 is also used by the following Italian Corps : Carabinieri,
Guardia di Finanza and Vigili del Fuoco.

The Focke-Wulf Fw 190 was one of the best airplanes designed
during World War II. With over 20,000 units produced from 1941, together with
the Messerschmitt Bf 109, it was the Luftwaffe’s most famous bomber. The Focke-Wulf
Fw-190 A-8 was equipped with a BMW 801 D-2 two star radial engine, with 14
1,700 Hp cylinders, which allowed it to reach a maximum speed of 653 Km/h.
It
was heavily armed with 2 MG 131 machine guns and 4 MG 151 20 mm cannons.
Production of the A-8 version began in the first months of 1944, characterised
with an injection system able to increase engine power, for brief periods, to
over 1,900 Hp. From 1944 until May 1945 in all the Focke-Wulf factories, more
than 6,500 Fw-190A-8 models were constructed, to face the ever more frequent
allied air raids.
