Largely associated with the very successful [[Vickers Viscount]] medium-range [[airliner]], it powered a number of other European and Japanese designs of the 1950s and 60s and was also used to convert American-manufactured piston aircraft to turboprop power. The list includes:
* [[Armstrong Whitworth AW.660 Argosy]] :  Medium-range transport
* [[Aviation Traders Accountant]] : Cancelled prototype airliner
* [[Avro 748]] (Hawker Siddeley H.S. 748) : Feeder airliner.
* [[Avro Athena]] one prototype aircraft only  : Military trainer 
* [[Breguet Alizé]] :  Anti-submarine aircraft: Dart RDa 21 2099&nbsp;hp with [[Water injection (engines)|water/methanol injection]]
* [[Cavalier Mustang|Cavalier Turbo Mustang III]]
* [[Fairchild F-27]] :  Small airliner, U.S. manufactured version of the [[Fokker F27 Friendship]]. Two versions: F27A and F27B
* [[Fairchild Hiller FH-227]] : Airliner, U.S. manufactured version of the [[Fairchild F-27]] featuring a stretched fuselage with increased passenger seating
* [[Fokker F27 Friendship]] :  Small airliner from Dutch aerospace and aviation manufacturer [[Fokker]]. The original model on which several other airliners were based (such as the abovementioned F-27 and FH-227).
* [[Grumman Gulfstream I]] (G-159) : Executive transport & small airliner.  Includes the stretched Grumman Gulfstream I-C (G-159C).
* [[Handley Page Dart Herald]] : Small airliner
* [[Hawker Siddeley Andover]] : Military transport
* [[NAMC YS-11]] :  Short/medium range airliner (Japanese aircraft)
* Some [[Douglas DC-3#Turboprop conversions|Douglas DC-3]] transport aircraft have been upgraded to use Darts. DC-3s in BEA service with this update were called Pionairs. Another conversion is the [[Conroy Turbo Three]].
* [[Convair 600]] and [[Convair 640]] converted from [[Convair 240]], [[Convair 340]] and [[Convair 440]] piston-powered aircraft:  Small airliners
* [[Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress|Boeing B-17F Flying Fortress]] : A unique one was converted by Aero-Flite Company with 4x Rolls-Royce Dart turboprop engines and was used for [[Aerial firefighting|fire fighting]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.tailsthroughtime.com/2010/06/in-late-1950s-many-of-surplus-boeing-b.html|title=Tails Through Time: The Turboprop B-17 Flying Fortress|website=www.tailsthroughtime.com|access-date=2016-04-05|archive-date=25 March 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160325214629/http://www.tailsthroughtime.com/2010/06/in-late-1950s-many-of-surplus-boeing-b.html|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.airailimages.com/uploads/1/0/1/9/10199931/________2253112_orig.jpg|title=Airailimages.com|last=Johnsen|first=Frederick|publisher=Kenneth G.

Power output was around 1,500&nbsp;hp (1,120&nbsp;kW) in early versions, and close to twice that in later versions, such as those that powered the [[NAMC YS-11]] airliner. Some versions of the engine were fitted with water methanol injection, which boosted power in hot and high altitude conditions.
