Opposed piston engines using the two stroke cycle are known to have been made by Oechelh�user as early as 1898, when a 600 hp 2-stroke gas engine was installed at the Hoerde ironworks.

Although the projects of connecting two stroke modes in one cylinder were tried already a long time ago in the Opposed piston engine, the combination of the two different cycles had never been tried before.

The P-12-42's eight-cylinder opposed piston engine was normally rated at after 1950, but was prime mover configured to run at a constant speed, with traction generator output regulated solely by excitation.

:: If you look at the picture in our article Opposed piston engine, I think you'll find that the odd, silver-colored object at the end between the two engines is a centrifugal oil separator.

It was equipped with a single three-bladed glass-fibre main rotor and a two-bladed tail rotor, with power provided by a Narkiewicz WN-6S air-cooled flat-six horizontally-opposed piston engine, which was mounted behind the cabin.

The locomotive shared an identical platform and carbody with the predecessor Model FM H-15-44 ( but not the FM H-20-44 end cab road switcher which used a different carbody and frame and a larger prime mover ), and were equipped with the same eight-cylinder opposed piston engine that had been uprated to.

In April 1904 a Gobron-Brilli?car driven by Louis Rigolly and powered by the opposed piston engine was the first car ever to exceed 150km / h with a " World's Record Speed " of 152.5km / h and on 17 July, again driven by Rigolly, the first to exceed 100 mph for the flying kilometre.

Power for the prototype was provided by a Czech-built horizontally-opposed piston engine, but flight testing revealed the need for more power, so a locally manufactured version of the Soviet AI-14P 260 hp radial, the Housai HS-6, was substituted along with a matching propeller, and with that change the CJ-6 was approved for mass production.

The aerostats in both versions were 68 ft 0 in ( 20.73 m ) in diameter and 136 ft 0 in ( 41.45 m ) long and manufactured by ILC Dover of Frederica, Delaware, USA . Partly to save weight, this version had only two engines, a pair of 150 hp ( 112 kW ) Textron Lycoming AEIO-320 horizontally opposed piston engines driving 4-bladed propellers.
