Leonardo Spa - Rome-based aerospace and defence firm - Signs partnership agreement with Italian railway infrastructure manager Rete Ferroviaria Italiana or RFI to implement a joint 'Military Mobility' project for the EU. Says the initiative "will add to existing infrastructure and digital capabilities,

facilitating the swift and large-scale movement of military personnel within and beyond Europe, even at short notice and on a large scale, ensuring safe, sustainable, and resilient transportation capacity".

Leonardo says its Global Security Operation Centre will "ensure high data protection standards", and its davinci-1 supercomputer "will enable the management of vast amounts of data". Says the deal requires expertise in railway transport, and project will involve integrating RFI's railway traffic management application components with other air and land mobility platforms.
