I missed the part about radios, radar, etc. So, in addition to transient protectors, liberal use of lossy ferrites (beads, etc) are strongly called for. There really is no one technology that will handle the full spectrum of ESD, lighting, general conducted EMI, and RF through microwave. I am sure that I'm not the only one on the list who has been through this commercially. Its NOT a trivial task and its particularly difficult to do with confidence in the absence of testing. Lacking that, you are going to have to rely on your own interpretation of other's experiences and hope that you understand what is offered.
