I assume you mean 'smaller wings than other planes'.

That would be because spy planes are typically robotic (unmanned). Hence they are lighter and don't require such large wings.

By removing the pilot you lose not just the weight of the person but things like the pilot's ejector seat, cockpit (including heavy windows) and air supply.
