I understand the main issue as to whether it can be used readily is whether it is an "electret" or the other sort of microphone - the name of which eludes me at the moment....("carbon?????") although I am no expert, I understand that this cannot be converted by a simple "nato to civvy convertion plug" - however many radios have an option somewhere (as a jumper on the back f.i.) that allows you to change between the two............

But if you have a radio/intercom that supports whatever this headset is, then 'groovy baby'

No doubt someone will blow this out of the water, but that is my understaing of the situation.
