I know someone in the US uses ambisonics for situation simulation for the US army...

I saw a news story about this elsewhere, and it had little information, not surprisingly, about how this whiz-bang system works. Is there any way to know if Raytheon has adapted ambisonic encoding/decoding? The reason I ask is because an artistic group I collaborate with, DEMILIT, is building an ambisonic array and we do work related to military technology, military space, etc. It would be provocative to know if Ambisonics has any sort of history of military use - in the US, UK or elsewhere? Thanks, Nick PS - been watching the forums for a little while, this is my first post.
