NF.XV: A high-altitude night fighter with a pressurized cabin, extended wingtips, two-stage Merlin engines, lightened airframe, and armament consisting of four 7.7 millimeter Browning machine guns in a ventral pack.
Only five built, one being a rebuild of an undesignated prototype used to evaluate a pressure cabin, the other four being rebuilds of NF.IIs.
