The '''Walter Junior''' was a family of four cylinder air cooled inverted inline engines produced by Walter Aircraft Engines in Czechoslovakia in the 1930s for aircraft, characterised by a bore and stroke of {{cvt|4.53|x|5.51|in|order=flip}}, a displacement of {{cvt|354.8|cuin|order=flip}} and producing roughly {{cvt|105|hp|order=flip}}.

The Junior was also built in Poland as the '''P.Z. Inż. Junior'''.<ref name="Forbes">{{cite web |last1=Forbes |first1=Peter |last2=Forbes |first2=Rita |title=Engine Data Sheets:Czechoslovakian Aero Engines: Page 117 of 140 |url=http://www.oldengine.org/members/diesel/Duxford/czechaer1.htm |website=Peter & Rita Forbes' Engine Webpages |accessdate=20 April 2018 |archive-date=4 August 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070804020858/http://www.oldengine.org/members/diesel/Duxford/czechaer1.htm |url-status=dead }}</ref>
