The Training Regiment (Italian: Reggimento Addestrativo) of the Artillery Command is the military unit responsible for providing ground artillery training to the units and personnel of the Italian Army. Made up of professional personnel, the Regiment is stationed in Bracciano (Rome).[2]
The Training Regiment operates the OTO Melara Mod 56 howitzer on the Janiculum Hill in Rome.[3][4]
The Regiment is the heir of the units deployed at the Artillery School. It was established on 1 March 2006 within the now-dissolved Artillery School, by merging and replacing the Training and Support Groups,[5] with Colonel Federico Ralli as its first Commander.
