This a "compound cycle diesel engine" I believe.

Is there a museum in the US or UK where I can see this engine on display?

A small mistake in the specification I think: the engine is described as "Horizontally Opposed" but the original Culverin was based on the very different Junkers "Opposed Piston" engine.

I am sure that this is just a simple mistake.

My correction withdrawn - the Nomad was indeed 12 cyliner horizontally opposed
