For a defence company Lockheed Martin is actually a surprisingly good* player in the VR/AR community and they always have somewhat sane people at conferences etc.
Interestingly they often mentioned fighter pilot helmets as the best state of the art AR technology but when asked about specifics the answer was usually..."classified, sorry" which I always thought was kind of sad.
They were quite involved in the Virtual World project which is open sourced:

*from my perspective as someone who thinks building weapons technology is pretty bad and something I'd never do personally
