The Daimler-Benz DB 602, originally known as Daimler-Benz LOF.6, was a German diesel cycle aero engine designed and built in the early 1930s. It was a liquid-cooled upright V16, and powered the two Hindenburg-class airships. It has roughly the same displacement and weight of the Beardmore Tornado, which was used in the ill-fated R101, but has almost twice the power of the Tornado, showing Daimler-Benz's superior knowledge regarding diesel engine construction.

Il Daimler-Benz DB 602, originariamente noto come Daimler-Benz LOF.6, era un motore aeronautico a ciclo diesel tedesco progettato e costruito all'inizio degli anni '30. Era un motore V16 verticale raffreddato a liquido e fu utilizzato per fornire spinta propulsiva ai due dirigibili della classe Hindenburg. Aveva all'incirca la stessa cilindrata e lo stesso peso del Beardmore Tornado, che fu utilizzato nello sfortunato dirigibile inglese R101, ma aveva quasi il doppio della potenza del Tornado, a dimostrazione della allora superiore conoscenza raggiunta dalla Daimler-Benz per quanto riguardava la costruzione di motori diesel.
