  May not be exactly what you are after but a poke round this site and 
associated links might be worthwhile.

  I grabbed a couple from AJ's photos back in the Yahoo days. The C-7417 Loran 
controller/display and the CP 748 radiation dose gadget.

  BUT, I really do still want other examples.

   

  I own a many-Nixie time code unit and a Systron Donner time display [larger 
Nixies] that I could photograph, but I want something more military or 
defence-related.

I'd like to see some, too. 

 

Back in the mid to late 80's, the US military put out a joint recruitment 
commercial on TV. It was highlighting the high tech equipment, all the branches 
used, implying that the recruits will get career building tech skills. One of 
the shots was a piece of gear, inside a tank, that clearly used nixie tubes. 
That gave me a chuckle, at the time, since nixies were long obsolete by the 
time, that commercial aired.

 

That commercial has to be floating around somewhere.
