One of the best-known Training Aircraft of all time, the AT-6 Texan was designed in the late 1930's as a low-cost, dual control, Advanced Combat Trainer with the 'Handling Characteristics' of a high-speed fighter and was developed from the fixed-undercarriage BC-1 Combat Trainer produced for the United States Army Air Corps in 1937. The first production AT-6 Texan appeared in 1940 and was followed in 1941 by the AT-6A Texan (U.S Navy SNJ-3) 1,549 of which were built. The AT-6B Texan was similar, but intended for gunnery training, and the AT-6C Texan (SNJ-4) had structural modifications to save on aluminium, 2,970 being built.
The major production version was the AT-6D Texan (SNJ-5) 4,388 of which were produced and the last variant was the more powerful AT-6F Texan (965 built). Around 5,000 Texans went to the RAF and Commonwealth Air Forces as the 'Harvard' in fact, the first Harvard’s delivered to the RAF were BC-1's, which entered service in 1938. Most British and Commonwealth Pilots, received their Advanced Training on the Harvard during World War Two, many under the huge Training Schemes set up in Canada.
The Texan was also produced under licence in Australia, Canada and Sweden, the Aircraft continued in service until 1950 with the US Air Force, 1953 with the US Navy, and 1955 with the RAF. It was used Operationally both by the USAF in Korea in 1950 and by the RAF in Kenya and Malaya in the 1950's. Over 16,000 were built in the US, as well as 2,600 in Canada and 750 in Australia. The Texan / Harvard was used for many tasks during its career, including Counter-Insurgency and Forward Air Control.
