Located at the Leonardo Velivoli plant in Turin-Caselle, the Museo dell’Industria Aeronautica Leonardo houses some of the company’s most significant products: from aircraft built in wood and with wing surfaces covered in canvas, to those produced in carbon fibre and titanium, with sophisticated navigation and mission management systems, and innovative remotely piloted aircraft.
A number of complete historical fixed-wing aircraft are on display, including: the SVA 9 biplane of 1917, used among others by Gabriele D’Annunzio, recovered in the 1970s by the then Aeritalia and restored by the Company with the collaboration of GAVS-Turin; the first prototype of the Eurofighter of 1994, which is still today the greatest European technological achievement in the field of defence aircraft.
There is also a range of on-board equipment, such as cameras from the G.91, F-104 radar, artificial horizons and navigation instruments from both the F-104 and AMX, a reproduction of the Lamperti/Garbagnati camera used on the SVA in the years 1915-1920, mannequins with pilots’ overalls, display models and reproductions, from 1918 to the present day.
