Italy is undergoing one of the most dramatic military transformations in modern European history. By 2027, Rome plans to significantly increase defense spending, overhaul aging equipment, strengthen its industrial base, and reshape its strategic role inside NATO and the EU. This video breaks down why Italy is doing this now — and how these investments will change European security for decades.
We explore Italy’s accelerated defense budget growth, long-range strike capabilities like HIMARS, the modernization of armored forces, the rise of next-generation aviation including the AW249 Fenice and the Eurofighter Typhoon, and Italy’s critical role in the Global Combat Air Programme (GCAP).
We also look at Italy’s strategic ambitions, its industrial powerhouses like Leonardo and Fincantieri, and Rome’s evolving position between NATO commitments and European strategic autonomy.
If you want a clear, in-depth analysis of Italy’s military revival and what it means for Europe’s security future, this video is for you.
