On the one hand, glad to see MS get out of this, I don't think the tech is nearly mature enough to work on the battlefield especially on the software side. I've worn the v1 IVAS and developed on hololens, there are definite use cases but - full battle rattle? no. For critical applications something like this must be combat hard and it's nowhere near ready.

eh that said anduril is fucking evil tho....
