Starfighters are an English heavy metal band from the new wave of British heavy metal movement founded in Birmingham, England, in 1980. They attracted a strong British cult following but were not able to translate this into any lasting success, producing just two full studio albums in the early 1980s. Ex-member Stevie Young brought in some attention to the group after he joined the hard rock band AC/DC in 2014. (Stevie Young is the nephew of AC/DC leaders Malcolm and Angus Young).
