Alenia Aeronautica was an Italian aerospace company created in 1990 by the merger of the Aeritalia and Selenia subsidiaries of the state holding IRI. Its subsidiaries included Alenia Aermacchi and Alenia Aeronavali, and it was part owner of the ATR joint venture with the European Aeronautic Defence and Space Company. It carried a 19.5 percent workshare in the Eurofighter Typhoon programme, built the wings of the Panavia Tornado through Aeritalia, developed the M-346 trainer from a Yakovlev design and, with Lockheed Martin, the C-27J Spartan transport. Finmeccanica spun its divisions out as independent companies in 2002, the company was reorganized as Alenia Aermacchi in January 2012 and it was fully merged into Finmeccanica three years later; that group has since taken the Leonardo name.
