Al,
As you know I worked for Plesseyin the late '60s and early '70s. I also had dealings with Racal. The simplest thing that I can say, without upsetting anyone or violating the various Official Secrets Acts, is that they were Professionals, and the Taxpayer chucked an awful lot of money at them.
Of course, the actual gear didn't get onto the open market for a long time, in fact long after the profesional kit used by the Military had moved on.
