j-turn
مناورة/دوران/انعطافة جي


Explanation:
I think this term has no opposite Arabic term and is transliterated as it is. In the linl you provided, the Japanese and Spanish versions did not put any specific translation to it and just put the word corresponding with "turn" in their language. So, I suggest to translate it to
مناورة/دوران/انعطافة جي
Then describe it betweeb brackets.
P.S. J-turn is sometimes called a reverse 180 or spin and go, if this is of any help to you.

I guess there is no just one-word Arabic translation or word by word translation for it; meaning could be conveyed by using the shortest explaination possible......
