Piaggio Aerospace has asked the government to be put under special administration after a 2017 turnaround plan failed to produce the expected results.

The company, a unit of Abu Dhabi’s sovereign fund Mubadala, is developing unmanned drones.

In 2017 it started talks to sell its executive P180 turbojet business to PAC Investments, a Chinese state-backed consortium, an operation which raised concerns over the transfer of sensitive technology and potential loss of jobs.
