The Rolls Royce Dart was a long-lived turboprop engine. First produced in the early 1950s, it was still in production around 1970.
Largely associated with the very successful Vickers Viscount medium range airliner it powered a number of other European designs in the 1950s and 60s. The list includes
- Avro 748 Feeder airliner
- Breguet Alizé anti-submarine aircraft
- Fokker F.27 small airliner
- Handley Page Herald small airliner
- Hawker Siddley Andover military transport
- NAMC YS-11 short/medium range airliner
Power output was around 1,500 hp (1,120 kW) in early versions, close to twice that in late versions.
