| The A.W.14 Starling II bore no relationship to the
original Starling apart from a common design origin
and similar construction. It was powered by an Armstrong
Siddeley Panther IIIA 14-cylinder two-row radial
rated at 540hp and carried two Vickers Mk II machine
guns. Three prototypes were completed and flown in
1930, one being a shore-based fighter to the requirements of F.9/26 and the other two being private venture
tenders to the N.21/26 fleet fighter specification. The
land-based prototype had an uncowled engine and the
shipboard prototypes featured Townend ring engine
cowlings. No production orders were received.
