I have just received from Giovanni Maduli the following pictures depicting the Frecce Tricolory display team during the fly by above Rome for the Armed Forces Day. You will notice that the formation flew with some “unmarked” aicraft something usual during the “training period” (from November to May 1st). For the reasons why the Frecce fly sometimes with blank tails, read my previous post: Why do the Frecce Tricolori fly with blank tails?.
