Defence Shields Moved in Italy

Elements of the  ground-to-air missile system Spada  have been moved from Udine to Trapani where the Italian Tornado and  Eurofighter jets have been flown from Brescia, Grosseto, and Piacenza.  Spada is designed to respond to airborne threats in Italian airspace.

UPDATE

The aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle is to sail tomorrow from Toulon.  There won't be room to move in the Mediterranean with all these aircraft carriers soon.
