their web site would have some history.
I don't have any direct knowledge or access, but in my opinion...
I think a large portion of FEI's business has always been government or
other private contracts. Your experience of finding little useful
information on an FEI product matches mine. I have a 5 MHz source made
for the US Navy. I had zero luck attempting to get any information or
response directly from FEI. Eventually I was able to find some links
that gave me a military specification number that seemed related and
found declassified specification documents that gave me most of what I
was looking for.
I also have an FEI rubidium source from the communications industry
(cell phone site equipment). The FEI pages document these with
specifications, but it seems they made many flavors with many custom
options. In my case, the rubidium I obtained had many differences from
the common forms that were documented online.
So unless you can, in some way, stumble on what this OCXO was used for,
and you get lucky, your difficulty in finding information seems quite
normal to me.
