Applications
The Jupiter is probably best known for powering the Handley Page HP.42 Hannibal airliners, which flew the London-Paris route in the 1930s. Other civilian uses included the de Havilland Giant Moth and Hercules, the Junkers G 31 (which would evolve into the famous Ju-52), and the huge Dornier Do X flying boat which used no less than twelve engines.
Military uses were less common, but included the parent company's Bristol Bulldog, as well as the Gloster Gamecock and Boulton Paul Sidestrand. It was also found in prototypes around the world, from Japan to Sweden.
By 1929 the Bristol Jupiter had flown in 262 different aircraft types, it was noted in the French press at that year's Paris Air Show that the Jupiter and its license-built versions were powering 80% of the aircraft on display.
