I don't know about army use, but I seem to remember seeing a press release somewhere when Siemens did a refit on a US Navy aircraft carrier. There were a couple of hot-standby PLCs controlling fuel delivery to the flight-deck, and the system was widely distributed within the ship: multiple storage tanks, multiple take-off points etc. I think they used Profibus everywhere with fibre optic redundancy and the weight saving in going from copper cable to FO allowed the ship to carry an extra few thousand gallons of JET-A1 for the F-16s or whatever.
I guess vibration, temperature etc would be as bad as you get on-land with the added problem of the marine environment.
