The J-class blimps were non-rigid airships designed by the Navy Bureau of Aeronautics and Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company in the early 1920s for the US Navy. Designed in 1919 the J-type were to be improvements upon the D-type. Improvements included a smaller envelope (174 800 cu ft) more powerful engines a new simple boat style control car capable of water landings and a single ballonet to reduce weight as tried in the H-1. Two airships designated J-1 and J-2 were ordered.
