Somewhat, I just googled the information. We have it easy today. All information we have in at our fingertips!

as for new clues,

introduced in the latter half of the 18th century

stabilized by the 1880s

greater efficiency, compactness, less complex power transmission system, and reduced susceptibility to damage (especially in battle)

Let's see if I can get close with this guess: One of the explosives based on nitroglycerin?

No, it is not a field ambulance either.

if you want more clues, I'll be glad to add them. I know it is pretty broad at the moment..

very similar to what is used on airplanes.

also very similar to what is used at home to move air around.
