The _actual_ irony here is that batteries are often not easily replaceable in lots of military equipment, and especially not always in weapons. It may require a very extensive tear down and replacement of entire sub assemblies to replace something as mundane as a coin cell battery. And don’t even start with thermal batteries…
The irony is that a lot of military equipment is designed to destroy and be destroyed, yet is probably designed with serviceability in mind more than consumer electronics.
