Yep JA, 21 years as an Instrument Fitter/Avionics Technician and I had never come across this term ... started working with the Army and I am introduced to a new vocabulary. As an example to explain this term to me an Army Mechanic said think of the Winch .. not every vehicle is fitted with one (due to cost and mission profile) but every vehicle has the capability to be fitted with one .. all the infrastructure (electrics, hydraulics etc) are installed.
