It was tested on the sqn.
We were target for a Lightning on fighter affil. I think they used the data link in a manual reversion mode. The 'kit' came up with the numbers and the FC told the pilot what to do. The pilot then flew the numbers.
Bit like painting by numbers. He flew headings, set speeds and initiated a climb at all the points called by the FC. They didn't actually use an autopilot link.
I could, if pressed, search my log book for a probable date, anyway it was probably in 1965 or possibly 1966.
I don't recall if the intercept worked. Most of our FAs finishe dup in a steep turning fight. I seem to recall that this one was easy
