- If you are curious about whats the smallest military aircraft in the world looks like, you came to the right place. Today, we will show you whats the smallest mini aircrafts in the world used by us navy and other air force look like. In today's aviation video, we included some of the smallest mini aircraft in the world with engine and pilot from the past and present. Especially in the past it was kind of a trend to develop the smallest fighter jet to say resources and money, but lately more and more manufacturer developing some of the smallest planes.
Whats your favorite jet? Tell us in the comments!

You mean 9
Gotta hand it to Brazil. They really knocked it out of the park with the Tucano
Your welcome
@@joaobodra8016 But it is not a light fighter jet as mentioned in the video ..rolls eyes ..wink
not mentioned: it’s the competition for the AT6 for the USAF light ground attack aircraft and intended to be sold to the US but developed after that got delayed
What they dont tell you is that its one of the best in the world for its class
De nada meu chefe
At least the Mini C-17 is not totally click bait - even this is a mock-up.
Its totally click bait
I want one o:
Me too!
@@mattgaming8717 no
It's totally click bait.
Tejas is only Multi-role Fighter Jet in the list 🔥
T-6 does not reach 500 mph. It's max speed is around 380 mph. The attack version has more powerful engines to keep up with the weight of weapons and armour plating - but still maxes out at same speed as regular trainer.
I thought that was very high for a turboprop light attack plane.
Rather 500 kph
Think they meant KPH
514km/h works better...
500 could be the max for the airframe in dive or something, but 380 seems right for cruising.
Tejas max takeoff weight is 13.5 ton.
Of Tejas mk2 is 17.5 tons. Equal to gripen
gripen is far better Tejas.
@KJM... because Gripen lacks state of the art EW systems and BVR missiles?
@KJM better than the Tajass, that nobody uses
@KJM Yup, I did. And about its assortment of compatible ordnance, RCS, implementation of data link AESA radar and other avionics, STOL capability, streamlined maintenance etc, not to mention its operational history.
Then I read about the Tejas MK2...
Perhaps you need to read a little about both planes as well, just saying.
@KJM LoL! Are you an expert on aviation technology or just a nationalistic fool ? Tejas is state of the art ? engine made America, pilot seat made in western country , avionics and radar made in isreal and most of parts are made in western countries. Plus tejas comes in the light category thats the reason it's called LIGHT COMBAT AIRCRAFT or LCA and thats the reason why this aircraft is in this video. Gripen is far superior that's the reason why it has been adopted in many countries. Your knowledge about aviation world is very pathetic.
"And a pilot not weighing more than 4 tons" lol my father-in-law is like, I'm out.
Yay our Tejas made it to the list 😊
of goofy looking planes
@@MarioDiaz-kx1kb the Tejas was really a disappointment. The fact that it took almost 30 years to design and start production 💀
@@skhaiwalker5408 lol no, we had lack of funds , lack of experience , lack of privatisation , and sanctions put on us , and the project was so slow in progression and almost had to be scrapped , but no,its not a disappointment , its radar is soon going to replaced with indian one , and it hasnt crashed even single time
@@MarioDiaz-kx1kb yeah but tejas is the best in this list
gaming yes teja is only perform in these planes that's y moodi ask for Rafael after humiliation on 27 February from Pakistan airforce and ofcourse the tea was fantastic
Honestly that swarm idea is definitely a game changer I’m sure the new tech of this is in the dark but would be amazing to see it in use defending our side obviously lol
We have missiles that can fly at Mach 7. Why do we need little baby planes?
Mid-air refueling makes these obsolete as well as america only picks fights with 3rd world countries
You should check out the ted talk on the drone swarms. They can drop payloads each containting 2500 drones. Each drone has 3.5 gram shaped charge and it will fly right up next to someones head or body and detonate.
@@christopherclink6931 yes, they also don't exist yet....
@@Alucard-gt1zf they gave a live demonstration.
2:32 holy shit... 1500/sec. The mechanics of that alone is nearly terrifyingly insane. AND that the mechanics can cycle so fast without issue so much. Mindboggling
I think he said 50 rounds per second, but it also sounds like he is talking about some laser guided munition, and just tacks on this “burst fire RANGE” (?) - specification out of nowhere.
@@thatfeeble-mindedboy He is talking about the entire array of weapons the jet carries. So its 50 rounds per second for the GSh-32 autocannon the jet has, and then there are a whole array of Laser Guided Munitions, BVRAAM, WVRAAM, other smart bombs (IIR, TV or RF guided), etc.
IAF Gnats turning paf sabre86 into heaps of scrap metal....🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Aren't u guys pisssed of about him calling the HAL Tejas poket fire?
@@theidiotictroublemaker2281 no not at all
@@_UCS_SwapnilSahaiSrivastav damn!
Like another comment said this video is filled with inaccuracies this is one of it
Gnat performance was neglible
You can check any reputable aviation site not this TH-cam video anyone can make upload from basement sonny
Btw about that museum f86 that was gifted to you by Bangladesh from its retired inventory stock
We got a iaf gnat in paf museum Which was forced to land during war sonny 😏😏
@@firohot5476 bro Indian Air force doesn't out anything on Gnat!
The video is full of inaccuracies cus they didn't put the South Korean LCA and the American LCAs the HAL Tejas model which he used Is outdated and according to the new aviation report based on flight performance, survivability and maneuverability
The HAL Tejas rules the sky in terms of the LCA list and if a the jet engaged in an air to air combat with the same category the enemy jet has 95% chance of getting shot down by IR seeker and the Gnat? The thing is absolutely a trash! If there was a comparison on which is best between the JF-17 thunder and the Gnat, I would definitely say the JF-17 is better even though it has many huge flows including not being a turn fighter and being underarmed being having a sheer mass and Power!
The vídeo shows Embraer's 312 while the speaker keeps talking about Wolverine.
It also showed a Pilatus model. I was kinda like.. uhhh?
Some of the footage used here to picture the Wolverine it is actually footage of its competitor, the Brazilian-made Super Tucano. The two planes are very similar in shape.
7:45 that’s a c-130 in the background
Love how he called a prop PLANE a jet...,
80iq: planes are jets
100iq: that is not a jet but a prop plane
120iq: a turbo prop is a jet engine with a propeller attached to it to receive adequate air flow compared to a fan
@@epapa737 Yeah, but the midwits are always right.
That’s the only mistake you found in this horrid, unresearched, clickbait video.
@@Sean-xu5ti no but that one peaves me the most
It technically is. Turboprops are jets with a propeller producing the thrust displacement instead of fan blades. Most planes with propellers that are bigger are turboprops. Piston engines are mostly just seen on general aviation aircraft.
Beechcraft AT-^ / Pilatus PC-9
Maximum speed: 593 km/h (368 mph, 320 kn)
Cruise speed: 556 km/h (345 mph, 300 kn) at 7,620 m (25,000 ft)
Stall speed: 143 km/h (89 mph, 77 kn) EAS flaps and gear up, 128 km/h (80 mph; 69 kn) flaps and gear down

Damn. The Goblin was armed to the teeth, could be towed, and intercept adversary fighters for 1hr 20 minutes while the spitfire could only do that for 45 minutes. Amazing!
So happy to see Tejas in this list.. 🤗
So?
7:37 When your dad take you to his work
First time I saw the famous Red Arrows fly was in 1969. I was five and they were refuelling at Glasgow airport (which had only just opened, Renfrew airport was literally at the end of our garden.) and by request they did an impromptu display above our school. They flew the beautiful little folland Gnat T2s . And instilled in me a lifelong love affair with aerospace.
The Vampire is another of my favourites, which I've been fortunate enough to spend some time helping restore an FB V . Good that he mentioned it's original name 'the Spider Crab.' Thus called for its pod n boom design.
Oh and most of the images shown (all those in color) of the MiG 9 Fargo, are actually of a MiG 15 UTI . The Fargo was powered by two BMW 003 Trophy axial turbojets. The MiG 15 UTI by one RR Nene centrifugal turbojet. Both German jets 004 & 003 were manufactured in the USSR by Tummanskii. (Excuse my spelling) Great videos these. Thanks.
Mlnl c-17 7:31
Hal Tejas first flight was in 2001 and it's certainly not known as pocket fire
When I heard pocket fire, i was like excuse me wtaf
@@fjordsiekl1492 this is what happened when someone makes a video with no research
So wt, no1 cares
To mention of the Folland Gnat was brilliant. Such a lovely aircraft with great history. You missed the BAE formerly Hawker Sidley Hawk. They are widely flown for training and combat. Can carry most weapons in the NATO arsenal and the 200 series brings something else to the table. The advanced Hawk produced with India is a bit special too.
My personal favourite though must be the AHRLAC Holdings Ahrclac.
Both the Gnat and - later - the Hawk were (in the case of the Gnat) the force behind the RAF's Red Arrow teams.
The Lockheed-Martin AT-6 Wolverine has a max speed of 316 knots/363 mph, not 514 mph.
Great video!
He gets a lot wrong.
Simply swapping 314kph for 314 miles per hour
No, it’s really not a great video
Beechcraft. The only thing in an AT-6 that is made by Lockheed-Martin is the A-10C's Weapons System Computer.
I was honestly expecting the Me-163 on this list. Great video btw.
83 jets is being manufactured with more enhanced capabilities than the earlier 40 Tejas ordered by the Indian Air Force (IAF). These enhanced capabilities include not just better weapon systems and Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radar.

Hi Souvik Das, thanks for your comment. Hope you enjoyed the video 🙂

One is a Vampire and another the Venom which was a considerable improvement
When talking about the Beechcraft Wolverine AT-6 the video shows the Embraer A-29 Super Tucano. Take a look at 1:16. They are similar, but different.
Good job on the XF-85 Goblin! Few people even know about it. One surviving example is at the National Museum of the US Air Force in Dayton Ohio. You seriously left out the Cessna A-37 Super Tweet though. It is seriously small. Also, the 0-1 Birddog.
I think Goblin is really the smallest jet military plane in the world
O orgulho brasileiro,o super tucano
I've been wanting to see one of these videos but military!
Hi Helicopters and More, thanks for your comment. IHave you watched our other mini Aircraft videos too? They cover civil airplane. Hope you enjoyed the video 🙂
@Phuck Censorship vice versa IAF knocked out lots of Paf aircrafts
Indian experience with the Gnat and the Vampire resulted in the Tejas. Gnat punched way above its weight class against formidable enemy aircrafts.
I saw a Tejas up close. It's fast as f indeed. I was in Bangalore
Bangalore has the national flight test centre. You must have seen it near it or in the aero India.
@@asmityadav4216 probably... Also the jet looked armed (did multiple passes above my area)
@@KochaSapam yeah they practice maneuvers and simulate war-like situation, fully arming the plane and flying. I know because I've seen armed Sukhois over my house all my life until now (I mean I'm 15 so seen them whole life until now)
@@sagittario5543 nice!! I got scared and ran away 🤣
I’m trying to imagine a 4ton pilot… It’s kinda like Gilligan ate the skipper after the skipper ate a whale 🐳
A 4 ton pilot would also take the aircraft way out of CG limits anyway. The guy knows nothing.
XF 85 Goblin is cute and deadly! that sure had made quite a difference for Bomber squadrons, especially on the last parts of their way when they were often without escorts due to their limited range compared to the bombers
*they were never used tho?*
deadly for it's pilot and mother-bomber for sure
@@Texas_Engineer_Mike why for the mother bomber? u dont think flying without escort over enemy terretory with BFs and Fokkers and god knows what else on their tails was more dangerous that carry that little support fighter?
@@naomy1701 no no just carrying it wasn't a problem for mother-bomber. The thing is when Goblin had to come back it had to somehow be catched under mother-bomber which was too dangerous due to turbulences caused by mother bomber itself. Goblin could be easily damaged in the process because it had a very light structure and as a plane it was really small which means that it was not as stable as normal jet.
Maybe Goblin would be a thing in ww2 if late P-51 or P-38 models with extended range and fuel capacity didn't exist. If so Airforce would probably just rush the project but as I said Goblin was unstable and in real dogfight (even with size advantage) it would be pretty bad.
Yeah these never actually happened. Hardly even tested really. WAAAAY too many issues to attempt to work out for it to be viable. I mean just think of the myriad problems, payload of the bomber, payload of the fighters, refueling and rearming, space concerns for all the extra pilots and air craft while still carrying an appreciable bomb load. Then there are the issues of actually landing the aircraft and moving it back into a stowed position and all the mechanics involved therein. Standoff and cruise weapons were a much more viable option to keep bombers safe while dealing with targets in contested air space. They allowed for firing of munitions from several hundred miles away in the most extreme of circumstances allowing the bomber to stay outside of AA and SAM systems. Then Project Have Blue came along and the F117 was born and stealth proved to be even more effective than a parasite system could dream of being for a bomber. Now drone tech is so good if air space is that contested just don't send a pilot in at all.
The AT-6 can also be used as a crop duster. I think its the same power plant. Though the duster is optimized for slow speed operation, maneuverability and climb rate.
The newer Beechcraft T-6C Texan II is not for sale to civilians let alone the Attack version(AT-6). It's only for sale to Military's through Textron Aviation. I seriously doubt anyone would use it as a Crop Duster.
Now the older North American T-6 Texan on the other hand that's no longer in military service can be bought by civilians as used. They made like 15000 of them.
A mini C-17 would be SO DAMN COOL
I really liked the Beechcraft Wolverine! It reminds me of the p51 Mustang! 500mph+ is very impressive for a prop plane!
The wolverine does not hit 500 mph.
I was looking for the aircraft in the thumbnail for that seems really small and funny looking but obviously it doesn't fly and for demo only. Earlier I said this could be clickbait if it was not featured but there it is. Lol
Yes, looks too small to be practical
Ever been had, but it's no different to the 20th century film posters.
I am glad that you kept all the old videos.
I love the vampire, such a cool looking plane.
Strange when featuring the Gnat, to not mention its role as a British designed primary fast jet trainer, and showing but not mentioning the Red Arrow livery…. or the predecessor, the yellowjacks….
Americans, nuff said.
Exactly what I was going to say!
It’s most famous role to date!
The Gnat is both beautiful and adorable
@@Tigershark_3082 every time I thought of David Gilmour (Pink Floyd) screaming through the clouds in his (then) Yellowjacks, Gnat…. G-MOUR…. my usual envy was replaced by a head full of “Shine on you Crazy Diamond….” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Also, Hot Shots!
0:53 when F4U Corsair and P-51 have a child.
thanks for featuring most of the super tucano aircrafts from the Philippine Air Force. I recognized them because of the insignia.
The VP of Steven's aviation used to fly a gnat. We always knew when he was coming in. Those little jets pack a punch
The AT-6 can do over 500mph in a single engine turbo prop. Thats impressive
I mean it says EMBRAER SUPER TACANO right on the side yet you keep calling it an AT-6
Love the tiny plane on thumbnail. It looks so happy 😂
Those minis must be a lot of fun to fly.
Tejas is awesome 🔥
They should make a FLY-ABLE version of the mini C-17 Globemaster!!
The BAE 146 looks a *bit* like a mini globemaster. I really like the way it looks.
I don't see this ever happening. The A400M already fills this role. It's half the size of a C-17 and double the size of a C-130. In other words, perfectly fills the hole in the market. I don't see who would want to buy a smaller C-17. The U.S. has no use for it, the Europeans have no use for it. I guess someone, somewhere might (Japan?) but it doesn't seem to make much sense.
@@VisibilityFoggy I also heard 3 consecutive LOUD AND PROUD C-130J Super Hercules's at 20,000ft high!!
The Folland Gnat. Unsung hero of the movie "Hot Shots."
Man that wolverines just beautiful. 514mph wow.
"It doesn't fly..." so it's not a military aircraft then.
Yes 🙆
This translates into ammunition, fuel, and a pilot that can reach a top weight of 4 tons". But it goes better with lighter pilots, of course.
Amusing. the AT6 is actually a PC-9 Pilatus with a few modifications. But essentially it's a Swiss plane.
I love the mini C-17 Globemaster it looks so cuuuute😍😍😍♥️
Great video! And best part was the thumbnail was real and not just clickbait!!
Hi tumbalo71, thanks for your comment. Hope you enjoyed the video 🙂
Oh that,s awesome! Thought was Clickbait😂😂😂😂😂😂😂nevertheless keep it up!!😎😎
What you mean not clickbait. Are you serious? I'm just watching because of your comment

Stay in India
Aw the baby c17 is the cutest plane ever❤ and cuteness overload
6:59 that one there was a violation ✨💀💀💀
_We need _*_MOAR_*_ teeny tiny _*_C-17s!!_* 🤣
When discussing the MiG-9 you should have just stuck with photos and short clips of the real thing instead of showing more video of the later MiG designs, and why include a short clip of the Gloster E28/39?
This video made me realise Tejas can be beneficial because of it’s small size!
Have a look at the Saab Sk60, it's a really small jet.
Technically a trainer, but can carry ordinance.
Super Tucano is also used by US special forces and Afghanistan Air Force
Hi Asik Banget, thanks for your comment. I didn't know the special forces used it as well. Thanks so much for sharing the information. Hope you enjoyed the video 🙂
That's not totally accurate. They were purchased to train and sell to the Afghans. Non of those aircraft will be a squadron used for combat by the U.S
The US knows the Afghanistan government will eventually collapse so sells of American aircraft isn't going to happen.
Didn't work did they, the US crept out in the middle of the night from Bagram Air base like cowards.
Lol nope . The usa sold Afghanistan garbage and then asked for payment.
Those things suck ass. They're literally shot down with an rpg since they're slow and they're not flying too high that's why it's chaos there right now . That's how shameless American government is
@@SumitYadav-ik2df Unfortunately you're right about the aircraft. The concern is high-end aircraft falling into the hands of the Taliban.
Less not forget the US went into Afghanistan to hunt down al qaeda. Removing the taliban was just a bonus. You have young Afghani men hanging out in coffee and hookah shops enjoying life while Americans are fighting the taliban...It's about time Afghans control their own destiny or face the talibans style of governing.
The DH9-9 looks like the Gloucester Meteor of late WWII, being acknowledged as the first allied jet of WWII.
Hi Nick d'Sylva, thanks for your comment. Hope you enjoyed the video 🙂
@@BeyondFacts Nobody who knows anything about military aviation enjoyed this, except that we can downvote the shit out of it for being "facts." You didn't do any research, obviously. Stop making these shit videos.
Small and cost effective fighters are the future...HAL LCA Tejas is one of the most effective fighter in this regard right now....soon many country will focus on light fighter jets...
We're beginning to see countries choose one of three options: high, low, or high-low mix for their air forces. The U.S. and USSR first developed the hi/lo concept with F-15/F-16 and Su-27/MiG-29, respectively. The U.S. went to replace this with F-22/F-35, but (stupidly) cut F-22 production too early. India, on the other hand, has been all over the place, operating their Su-30MKI fleet along with SEPECAT Jaguars, MiG-21s, MiG-29s, Rafales, Mirage 2000 and Tejas. In my humble opinion, they should decide on an eventual fifth-gen replacement for the MKIs in the coming years and either develop the Tejas further or cut it. I know they need the Jaguar for nuke delivery, but the Rafale can fill that role as it does for the French. The number of aircraft types being operated by the IAF has to be a gigantic expense.
@@VisibilityFoggy Tejas Mk2 is already in making and AMCA 5th fighter is in advance development stage....and moreover india is not concern about 5th gen fighter ... There will be more follow up order for Rafale f4 variant....and why we would replace su 30 mki ?? Don't compare india will US we have unique challenges to face we need MKIs for that...mig 21 is getting replaced by Tejas....mig 29 are UPG upgraded....and all the fighter you mentioned are targeted at different fronts we don't mix up things...SU 30 and latest Rafale are mainly for eastern front bordering china and MiG-21, mig 29 , Mirage are targeted at border with pakistan ...
Cool, the Vampire aircraft is from my small local airport, just a stones throw away!
Its nice because they fly a lot of old military planes here, so we get mini-airshows a few times per year from our garden!
Throw a stone at it for proof
You know this video is not at all serious when you see a mock-up toy C 17 included in the list. Also, he didn't mention any ww1 aircraft which would easily be smaller than most jets and props he mentioned.
great video but i kinda got distracted by the MiG-9 part.
Clarification for some: the plane with the non-swept wings is the MiG-9, the other one shown that has swept wings is a MiG-15
They also showed footage of a BI-1 in that Mig-9 segment. They also were not known for catching fire, they were known for flame-outs which is the complete opposite. It's basically a click bait shitposting channel, so what did we expect?
Great Video... You Learn Something New Every Day. Thanks for Sharing
I love History and it'll be a little bit helped thank you
The smallest of military aircraft were the reconn planes of the late 1980's & early 1990's. USA & Russia, developed similar versions. They could ride inside a C-5 or 747 & Russia's variant would be in a An-124 or II-96. The planes would be towed-out of the belly by a crane/grappling hook, wings unfolded, and sent on it's way, to take images at speeds exceeding mach 3, using a ramjet thrust-vectored engine. Very short flight, due to fuel consumption. Plane would then meet-up with it's parent, lock-on to the crane arm, and be brought back into the cargo hold. With ramjet and Mach 3-plus technology way-back-then, imagine what they use now.
where is your source for that?
The first single engine operational jet fighter was the he 162, 9.05m long with a wingspan of 7.2m n top speed of 562mph.
Some of those are Super Cool!
And would PROBABLY VERY USEFUL IN MODERN WARFARE.
THANKS!
What endlessly creative creatures human beings are. We never run out of ideas for new toys to kill or maim each other. Isn't that wonderful?
Number 2: It's a funny thing that he did not say the name of that fighter, TEJAS!!! How hard is it to say correctly?! Or is it prejudice of nationality?
Cas bhai.. dont take it personally
You misspelled “McDonnell” on the Goblin. It has two L’s. I worked for McDonnell Douglas/Boeing for over 33 years.
Hi Rodney Mcvey, thanks for your comment. I haven't realized my mistake until I read your comment. Sorry about that. Hope you still enjoyed the video 🙂

C-5 galaxy: am I a joke to you?
*One* of the biggest
The wolverine is just a glorified pc-7/pc-9 designed by Pilatus in Switzerland
and? it evolved and upgraded and was intended for the US as a trainer not as an attack plane
Thanks for posting this video, amazing!!!
Beyond Facts, what a totally appropriate name for this channel.
This was interesting, but you need to edit. You referred to Tucano as a light fighter _jet,_ and spoke of an aircraft being adopted by the Finnish Air Force for their _army._ Lastly, with the Goblin, intended to be carried by the B-36, you may want to clarify, for the uninitiated, that the footage is of the equipment test aboard a B-29.
A pilot that cannot weigh more than 4 tons, I realize there are some big people out there but the Guinness book of world records lists 2,049 lbs as the heaviest person although I've heard of a guy that weighed 2100 lbs
OMG.... I thought the biggest person was like a 1000 lbs... How the fuck is that even possible... Holy shit...
The pilot can hit four tons? WOW!
Wonderful happy to watch video.
4:49 For God's sake you've shown MiG-15 for most of the time
1:27 🇮🇳❤️
HAL Tejas and Folland are Both Beauty and Beast 🇮🇳
Thumbs up and subscribed!
Well, technically, a UAS is an aircraft and they can be much smaller than any of these. The title should read smallest _manned_ military aircraft.
A 5.56mm projectile may classify as an aircraft.
Large is powerful cool ,
mini is so cute and charming
such as lady's mini skirt 🤩
😂
Good video. Just one correction, the Goblin was carried under a B-29, not B-36.
I only wish the PA-48 had been put into production. Those would be classics today.
Hi Yannick G, thanks for your comment. Hope you enjoyed the video 🙂
Isn’t the P-48, what the little key chain can opener is also called??
@@johncamp7679 Nice! Interesting piece of trivia. That airplane could have opened a can of worms, apparently the Mustang airframe was not adapted for close air support.
Dude, your video had Super Tucano footage when you were talking about the Texan.
Videos that tell me to like the video before the end is the trash that makes me block your channel instead.
Mk is short for "mark." Don't say "M K."
Why on earth are you even mentioning the mini C-17?
The Super Tucano isn't a "fighter jet."
Title says aircraft.
@@estellemelodimitchell8259 listen to the narrator saying the ''Nigerians bought 12 of these fighter jets''. Sometimes one slips by us.
@@estellemelodimitchell8259 yes, but in the video the narrator says "fighter jet" when specifically talking about the Tucano.
@@jean-bernardbrault2753 Go to 5:30 - 5:35 where the narrator intro the aircraft properly.
@@Androctonus84 Go to 5:30-5:35 for the intro of this aircraft. That’s the term correct for the Super Tucano.
There’s a wow wee flying that thing with big boots on lol
