The Rolls-Royce RB.53 Dart was a long-lived turboprop engine. First produced in the early 1950s, it was still in production until the last F-27s were produced in 1985.

Largely associated with the very successful Vickers Viscount medium range airliner it powered a number of other European and Japanese designs in the 1950s and 60s. The list includes
