Not sure what value they would see in it (not saying it is not interesting but the cost will be astronomic).
So yes if it becomes reality there will be military use.
Why would anyone pay an astronomical cost to develop such an aircraft, then pay as much again to convert it for some unspecified military role? Are there not enough proper (and also astronomically expensive) military aircraft projects already on the books?
