    Event context

    Multiple independent secondary summaries agree the unit was constituted 4 October 2010 as Comando Operazioni Aeree (absorbing functions of the former Comando Operativo Forze Aeree, COFA) and took its current name Comando Operazioni Aerospaziali on 1 May 2020. This pass could not fetch a directly-quotable primary-source sentence confirming the exact dates (web_fetch returned an empty page body and the Chrome browser tool was unavailable), so confidence is marked inferred rather than confirmed pending a follow-up direct fetch of the official page.
