Alenia Aermacchi
The Advance European Pilot Training (AEPTJ) program – also unofficially called "Eurotraining" – a consortium of 12 European nations to give advance &amp; lead-in fighter training with a common core course and training provided by a common aircraft – has contacted Alenia Aermacchi through the European Defence agency in 2010, for further information on the M-346. In May 2013, Alenia Aermacchi announced that the AEPTJ held a low priority for the firm and that "...progress has been slow."
