Go to Post I'm really impressed with how much effort we'll go to, to avoid buying a $25 servo tester. - MrForbes [more]

SpaceX uses LabVIEW extensively:

The Ground Software team is about 9 people. We primarily code in LabVIEW. We develop the GUIs used in Mission and Launch control, for engineers and operators to monitor vehicle telemetry and command the rocket, spacecraft, and pad support equipment. We are pushing high bandwidth data around a highly distributed system and implementing complex user interfaces with strict requirements to ensure operators can control and evaluate spacecraft in a timely manner.

So do Lockheed Martin, Ball Aerospace & JPL. I have used LabVIEW in used in RF radio transmitting/receiving and test applications. If one looks, there are an amazing number of LabVIEW programming jobs available, and when looking, the search is not muddied by database applications as C++ is.

Regarding statistics, I made my own survey at this year's regional. Results are:
LabVIEW: 50%
Java: 40%
C++: 5%.
