The standards and skills required for making literally *everything* in military equipment, vehicles, etc is MUCH higher than that of everyday items. Right down to the soldering on a wire harness, specs of each and every component on a circuit board, etc.
All of that, on top of the additional training anyone needs to work on those things the correct way, add up to quite a lot.
