The ABC [[Radial engine|radial aero engines]] of the World War I period were extremely advanced for their time, and were initially thought to be very promising indeed. Unfortunately they were all more or less plagued by problems – and although a number of types for the [[Royal Air Force]] were designed around ABC engines (especially the ill-fated ''Dragonfly'') none saw squadron service with the RAF.

ABC also made a large number of engines for electrical generators and other purposes – mostly with a [[flat twin]] cylinder layout and unusual exhaust-over-inlet valve configuration. These smaller ABC engines have the distinction of being possibly the first airborne [[auxiliary power unit|APUs]]- the [[Coastal class blimp]] (first flown in 1916) had a 1.5-horsepower unit installed to provide electricity for the onboard wireless set, whilst a similar engine was used to power the searchlight of the sole [[Supermarine Nighthawk]] '[[Zeppelin]] killer' of 1917.
