The Italian Navy (MMI) operated with the AB204ASW until it was replaced by the AB212ASW. Many of the AB204ASW helicopters were placed into storage at Cagliari-Elmas on Sardegna. After several years 15 of them were stripped of their ASW equipment and transferred to the CNVF. By now, all have been withdrawn from use and replaced by the more powerful and modern AB412.
