The Junkers Jumo 204 was an opposed-piston, inline, liquid-cooled six-cylinder aircraft diesel engine built by the German manufacturer Junkers. It descended from the company's earlier Fo3 and Fo4 diesel engines, and the Fo4 was redesignated Jumo 204 by the Reich Air Ministry, whose numbering gave Junkers Motoren the first digit 2. The engine used a two-stroke cycle with twelve pistons working in six cylinders and two geared crankshafts, one at the bottom of the block and one at the top. It was test flown in early 1929 in a Junkers G 24 and entered service in 1932. The later Jumo 205, 206, 207 and 208 differed in stroke, bore and supercharging, and the design was also licensed to Napier, which built a few as the Culverin.
