Alfa Romeo 125 is the name of a family of Italian aircraft engines, designated Alfa 125, 126, 127, 128, 129 and 131, that Alfa Romeo adapted from the Bristol Jupiter and Bristol Pegasus designs, converting them to metric measurements, local materials and indigenous equipment. Mainly fitted to Italian bombers in the Second World War, they were built to the number of about 11,000 between 1934 and 1944. The variants carry suffixes for reduction gear and compressor and a number for rated altitude in hundreds of metres. The Alfa 128 R.C.21 is a nine-cylinder air-cooled radial of 28.6 litres with a gear-driven supercharger. Aircraft powered by the family included the Fiat G.12, the Junkers Ju 52 and the Savoia-Marchetti S.M.79 Sparviero.
