One of the first 'real' modern uses [0] of Opposed Piston Diesel engines in by Fairbanks Morse, for military uses.
the Army is funding [1] Cummins new $87M opposed piston diesel engines for vehicles, they will have about a 25% decrease in fuel use. (which is HUGE for an army that has to carry their own fuel) That will definitely be quickly implemented by the major transportation companies, since fuel is such a huge part of their cost for trucking.
