Triggered by the article found by hesham, I tried to make a list of the J-designations, certainly
still incomplete, many types with K-designations seem to have started with the number as a
J-designation.
J 1 : First full metal aircraft, monoplane, built 1915
J 2 : Full metal fighter aircraft, 1916, six built
J 3 : Project for a full metal fighter aircraft, later developed into
the J 7.
J 4 : Armoured single engined, twin seat ground attack aircraft, sesqiplane,
184 built until armistice.
J 7 : Full metal fighter aircraft, 1917, one built, not accepted for
series production after the prototype was destroyed in a landing
accident with Antony Fokker at the controls (!), who in the event
got the production order for his contender.
J 8 : Twin seat development of the J 9, multi-role aircraft, one built.
J 9 : Single seat fighter, 1918,"Junkers D.I", development of the J 7, 47 built
J 10 : Development of the J 8 as ground attack aircraft
J 11 : Full metal, twin seat monoplane float plane, based on the J 10, 3 built.
J 12 : Full metal monoplane passenger aircraft for 4 pax, based on the J 10, project only
J 14 ; Big monoplane, project
J 15 : Light passenger aircraft for two pax + pilot, 1920, The wing could be changed from
a high to a low position, one built for testing
J 16 : Often reffered to as the pre-project to the K 16 small airliner (?)
J 17 : Sports air:craft, monoplane, mentioned March/April 1921
J 18 : Light passenger aircraft, similar to K 16, mentioned March 1921
J 19 : The later T 19 trainer/touring aircraft, 1922
J 21 : T 21/H 21, parasol twin seat recce aircraft, 1923
J 22 : T 22, single seat fighter version of the J 21
designation seems to have been used twice
J 22 : Large aircraft ("Großflugzeug") JG -1, construction stopped
in 1921 on order of the allied aviation control commision (ILUK)
J 25 : Improved J 21 with more powerful engines
J 40 : Long range twin hull with special equipment (?)
(suggests, that only the equipment lead to the new designation)
J 1000: Ultra-large flying bout project, twin hull canard design
