TheArrows A11 was aFormula One car with which theArrows team competed in the1989 and1990 Formula One seasons, and at the start of the1991 season (badged as aFootwork).

Designed byRoss Brawn, the A11 was the first Arrows car following the ban onturbocharged engines at the end of1988, being fitted with anormally-aspirated 3.5-litreFord Cosworth DFRV8 engine. It was raced to reasonably good effect byDerek Warwick andEddie Cheever in 1989, Warwick finishing in the top six on five occasions and briefly challenging for victory in theCanadian Grand Prix, and Cheever finishing third in theUnited States Grand Prix, held in his home town ofPhoenix, Arizona. With 13 points, Arrows placed seventh in the Constructors' Championship.

For 1990, the car received minor suspension upgrades and became theA11B, while Italian driversMichele Alboreto andAlex Caffi replaced Warwick and Cheever. 1990 turned out to be far less successful than 1989, however, as the car failed to qualify seven times, and finished in the top six only once, when Caffi took fifth at an attritional race inMonaco. Caffi was also forced to sit out theUnited States andSpanish races through injury, Germany'sBernd Schneider deputising on both occasions. The two points from Monaco gave Arrows ninth in the Constructors' Championship.

By the start of 1991, the team had been taken over by the Japanese Footwork concern and renamed accordingly, and had also secured a deal to runPorscheV12 engines, replacing the Fords. However, the team's car for that season, theFA12, had to be redesigned when it was discovered that the large Porsche engine, the3512, could not fit into it. The team therefore modified the A11B into theA11C to accommodate this engine, and used it in the first two races, as well as atSan Marino after Alboreto destroyed his redesigned FA12 during practice.^[2] From these five attempts, the ageing car qualified only once (Alboreto in theUnited States), before being finally retired.
