Description
The Ariete, the most important armored unit of the Italian Army, was completed in 1986. It was followed by five others by 1988 and the Italian Army began a complete program of trials. The tank was equipped with the latest optical and digital imaging and fire control systems. An initial order for 200 tanks was placed, to be followed by a second lot for a further 200 vehicles of an improved version. The final delivery took place in 2002.
