About the Aeroprakt A-22 Foxbat

The Aeroprakt A-22 Foxbat is a Ukrainian-designed light sport aircraft that has become popular worldwide for its rugged construction, excellent visibility, and forgiving flight characteristics. First flown in the mid-1990s and entering production in 1996, the high-wing two-seater was engineered by the Aeroprakt design bureau in Kyiv specifically for the emerging ultralight and light sport aircraft markets. Its all-metal airframe and simple systems made it particularly appealing to flight schools and private owners seeking an affordable, durable trainer and recreational aircraft.

The Foxbat's defining feature is its spacious side-by-side cockpit with exceptional visibility through large Perspex panels that wrap around the cabin, giving pilots nearly unobstructed views in all directions. Powered by Rotax 912-series engines producing 80 to 100 horsepower, the aircraft cruises comfortably at 90 knots while sipping fuel at around 4 gallons per hour. Its stall speed of just 35 knots with flaps and docile handling make it ideal for short-field operations and novice pilots. The design has spawned several variants including the A-22L Foxbat, A-22LS with larger fuel capacity, and the A-22 Valor taildragger version.

Despite geopolitical challenges affecting Ukrainian manufacturing, the Foxbat remains in production and continues to find buyers across Europe, North America, Australia, and New Zealand, where it's particularly popular for coastal patrol and recreational flying. SkyMeter has tracked flights across airframes and operators, with the largest observed operator.
