The Folland Gnat is a British compact, swept-wing, subsonic, fighter aircraft that was developed and produced by Folland Aircraft. Envisioned as an affordable light fighter in contrast to the rising cost and size of typical combat aircraft, it was procured as a trainer aircraft for the Royal Air Force (RAF), as well as by export customers, who used the Gnat in both combat and training capacities.
