Hello Shakaali.
Not the Stout - but you are getting very close to the answer.  :-)

The Stout-ST-1? …  if this is the correct answer, I tip my hat and turn to Shakaali, as I went with his answer and just researched a tad bit more.  :)

It's not the Stout.

If you look at the Wiki page for the Stout ST-1  - you'll see there were a few other torpedo bombers evaluated by the US Navy around this time - the "Quest" machine is mentioned...

Hmm...

Fokker FT and Blackburn Swift were quite different designs, and there were more than one built, both of them.

So it has to be...

Hello shakaali!
First of all, happy birthday! ;D

What I found, it's not because of my knowledge of airplanes ...  :-|
I got to see the Finnish national insignia under the wings. ;)
By the AA of your nickname I assumed you were finnish (confirmed with your profile) :o

So I just looked for a museum of historical aviation ... Suomen ilmailumuseo and there I started looking for the planes I did not know ... :-[

I found this:

Adaridi AD3

It would have been fun if the museum was designed by Alvar Aalto. ;D
