Wonder if the defense folks adhere to civilian EPA/SMOG mandated controls?
I know the stuff I designed for the military had very different specifications
and often just tossed out EPA/UL/CSA/FCC/etc regulatory specifications that I
had to design to for civilian applications (my industrial controls era)
Also know that 'some' military stuff had to adhere to some regulatory agencies
and all of that was over seas (my computer era)
AFAIK, DoD can ignore a lot of civilian regs, but they do try... mil equipment is long lived, that is whey the engines have to stay in production.
The physical look of the VT 365 6.0 for the defense market is interesting... Massive EGR cooler, etc.
