We did work for a number of ALRE systems (aircraft launch and recovery), lot of critical safety and critical application items. Most humorous was a steam catapult hook (for the deck of an aircraft carrier) which seriously was drawn to look like a giant d1ck. Some engineer somewhere had a good laugh over that.
