The Gnat was designed to be a compact, simplified fighter aircraft that could be manufactured inexpensively and with tools and facilities accessible to less industrialized nations. Gnats were purchased or licensed to build by export customers, including Finland, India, and Yugoslavia who flew the Gnat in both combat and training capacities. 449 were built. They were adopted by the Royal Air Force as trainers, then later flown by their Yellowjacks and Red Arrows aerobatic display teams.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1353\/7931\/files\/Gnat_T1_hero02_480x269_08bd679f-9f0f-4893-ab3e-3affd3d00216.jpg?v=1664208933\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eOUR PLANE'S STORY\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eN572XR was built as a Gnat T.1 trainer in 1963 and delivered to the RAF November 1, 1963. It was first used to train RAF pilots in the Fast Jet track, and by August 1974, it joined an elite team of 9 Folland Gnats as part of the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, the Red Arrows. N572XR was part of a world-class aerobatics team representing the speed, precision, and capabilities of the Royal Air Force. After retirement, N572XR was bought by a private owner in 1989. MotoArt was able to secure the original wing, which had been replaced after being damaged.
