I have worked in the defence sector on similar things and agree with the not invented here thing. At the same time it breeds tools out of necessity. My only tale on tale is that I pretty much designed and built ansible in Perl in 1999.
Of course, young and inexperienced, I did not see the potential preferring mild alcoholism and socialising. Doh!
