I did not store the origin of these pictures and I am unable to retrieve it. What these aircraft are used for I don’t know, maybe for spotting wildfires. Googling for “protezione civile catania”, “scuola di volo catania” or stuff showed no results. Also, I could not find anything about a new Italian aircraft type that may have been named “Mosquito”.
The aircraft very much resemble the Bravo 700, but there are little differences.
Can you identify the type? Thank you!

I’ll be honest, I’d probably just glance at it and think “Skyfox”

Surprised you haven’t come across one yet at Tibenham – there are actually 42 listed on GINFO, several with photos.

italy is my country
Fly here has high costs due to’ our ENAC
Sicily has wild fire every day and protezione civile flyes round the region to’ monitor the ground with ULtra light s due to’ their low costs

Yes, I’d agree with that.
It’s a type I have never come across before.
There is at least one on the UK register

After another turn of searching I am almost sure these aircraft are ICP Savannahs. The model variability should allow that conclusion.
