The Nave Trieste is the newest and most imposing multi-role amphibious assault unit (LHD - Landing Helicopter Dock) of the Italian Navy, and the largest ever built for the national fleet. Designed for extreme versatility, it can perform amphibious and air missions (hosting even the F-35B fighter jets), as well as provide crucial logistical support and humanitarian assistance, thanks to its vast transport capacity and state-of-the-art onboard hospital.

Its entry into service represents a significant leap in the Navy's operational capabilities.
