All Military and Heavy Vehicle Diesel Engines

Diesel and multi fuel engines built to power tanks, military trucks and other heavy vehicles, where toughness, the ability to burn whatever fuel is at hand and a compact installation matter more than refinement. An entry belongs here when the cited article calls the engine a diesel or multi fuel engine for a tank, a military vehicle or a heavy commercial vehicle, including unusual layouts such as opposed piston designs. It excludes engines made for ordinary road cars, racing engines and mass produced American V8 engines. Entries are placed by what their own cited article says, so each one sits in the narrowest group its source supports, and the group page lists it beside the other members.

The Leyland L60 was a British 19-litre (1,200 cu in) vertical six-cylinder opposed-piston two-stroke multi-fuel diesel engine designed by Leyland Motors in the late 1950s/early 1960s for the Chieftain main battle tank (MBT).
