the carabinieri is (granted with a lot of zoom) relatively easy to read from there. Polizia parked on the far south of their platform might be possible there too, but there was nothing parked there in this case.
Guardia di Finanza ATRs below the sheds should be readable too but we didnt risk staying there too long as you are along a very busy road

UH-90A MM81566 / E.I.249
small correction, this was actually MM81565 / E.I.248

one more UH-90A on the north ramp that I wasn't able to read before is E.I.211, which makes it MM81528
