General Masiello at the demonstration of the 'IMPERIO' System: Towards a Digital Future for the Army
At a significant moment in the technological evolution of the Armed Forces, the Army Parachutist General Carmine Masiello, Chief of Staff of the Italian Army, recently participated in a demonstration of the “IMPERIO” Command and Control system. The event took place at the Department of Experimentation and Operational Integration of the Ce.Si.Va, highlighting the relevance of digital transformation in the military sector.
“IMPERIO”, already operational in several allied nations and configurable for multi-domain operations, emerges as an important tool in strengthening Command and Control capabilities. Through simulation, the capabilities of “IMPERIO” to optimize decision-making and operational processes were highlighted.
Specifically, through capacitive simulation, the capabilities of this system regarding efficiency in a digitalized Brigade command environment were clearly demonstrated, as well as its potential to effectively integrate with various other Command and Control systems.
During the presentation, General Masiello stressed the need to rapidly adopt a culture that embraces technological progress, which is essential to address the growing complexities of global security scenarios. He highlighted the importance of developing technologies that, in synergy with training based on solid values, raise the operational and preparedness standards of the Army.
In conclusion, the Chief of Staff recognized in “IMPERIO” not only a technological advancement, but a crucial step towards the adaptation of the Army to future challenges, emphasizing how the integration between innovation and tradition is vital for the success and effectiveness of military missions. The event reaffirms the Army's commitment to incorporating cutting-edge technological solutions, thus ensuring an effective and timely response to contemporary operational needs.
