Petter, and first flew in 1955; although never used as a fighter by the Royal Air Force, the "Gnat T.1" trainer variant was widely used; the Gnat became well known as the mount for the RAF Red Arrows aerobatic team)The Gnat also achieved export success, particularly with India, the largest foreign operator who manufactured the aircraft under license.
