Italian Armed Forces

The Italian Armed Forces consist of four main branches: the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Carabinieri, each responsible for different aspects of national defense and security. The Army handles land-based operations, while the Navy protects Italy's maritime interests. The Air Force manages aerial defense and operations, and the Carabinieri serve as a military police force with civilian policing roles. Italy maintains a professional, well-equipped military committed to national defense, international peacekeeping, and disaster response, operating under the Ministry of Defense to ensure stability and security both locally and globally.
