The Aria T12 is a two-abreast, narrow-body, short range twin-engine turboprop commuter airliner produced by Aria Aircraft Company, a commercial aircraft manufacturer headquartered in Denver, Colorado USA, and Dublin, Ireland.

The aircraft is designed to operate as a hybrid electric-SAF (sustainable aviation fuel) aircraft, which can also use Jet A or A-1 fuel in place of SAF fuel if necessary. A non-hybrid, all SAF/Jet A fuel version is also available with a more limited range.
