Alenia is a risk-sharing partner in the A380 program, Zappa said, with responsibility for the design and production of a very large fuselage section.
Zappa said Alenia is unlikely to undergo further major restructuring as a consequence of reorganization or privatization of Finmeccanica, the state-owned holding company to which it belongs.
Alenia’s presence in both civil and military markets has helped it survive the aerospace downturn of recent years, Zappa said, and only about half of its activities have been impacted by the air transport crisis which followed the September 11 events.

 The Alenia-Aermacchi-EMBRAER AMX
The Aeritalia (later Alenia) firm had been working on concepts since 1973; in response to the the AMI request, in April 1978 Aeritalia joined forces with Aermacchi to work on the requirement, which was given the designation of "Aeritalia Macchi Experimental (AMX)".
The pilot flies the aircraft with "hands on throttle and stick (HOTAS)" controls, using an OMI/Selenia head-up display (HUD) and a single Alenia head-down multifunction display (MFD), with the MFD providing a map display or imagery from weapon seeker or targeting pod; all other controls are analog gauges and dials.
Sources are inconsistent concerning the chaff-flare dispensers and images are ambiguous on the matter, but it is hard (though not impossible) to believe they wouldn't be included in a modern strike aircraft.
