They were only testing this at Edwards 20+ years ago. The only holdup was money if you can believe that.
How long have we had Terprom in cruise missiles? and we couldn't put them in manned aircraft because?????

It wouldn't be a good thing for Hogs, Strike Eagles or Hornet?

Navy T-6s and T-45s both have ILSs.
Naval aviation for the fleet has put their faith into JPALS - at least as late as 2010. Not sure what path the Safety System Working Groups have been heading down the last few years.
