Arrow SNC was an Italian manufacturer of aircraft engines located in Piacenza. The company focused on engineering and producing two-stroke powerplants intended for ultralight and homebuilt aircraft. It has since ceased operations.
Their product line featured a modular engine design, utilizing common pistons, cylinders, and gearboxes while varying the crankcases. This approach allowed for configurations ranging from single to twin and four-cylinder units, each identified by their displacement measured in cubic centimetres. The single-cylinder Arrow 250 had a displacement of 250 cc (15 cu in) and delivered 25 kW (34 hp). Derived from this was the Arrow 270 AC, also with 250 cc (15 cu in) displacement but rated at 26 kW (35 hp). The twin-cylinder Arrow 500 produced 48 kW (64 hp) from a 500 cc (31 cu in) displacement, while the four-cylinder Arrow 1000 generated 75 kW (101 hp) with a 1,000 cc (61 cu in) capacity.
At one point, Arrow SNC maintained a distribution partnership based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
