Most of our military technology was developed by civilian firms, on military grants or loans for the sole purpose of later re-introducing that technology to non-military scale operations and applications..

We all know that..

I would rate our military technology somewhere in the low 90's on a 100 point, but the use and effeciency ratings in the 50's...

The ratings would be lower if the military did not hire civilians to "help" military employees understand and utilize the new technology..

IMO
