Probably something more like "Invoke-Command -AsAdmin"

Which would be aliased to sudo

That's what I wxpect. But with one more layer. In the end it's going to be system32/elevator.exe which is called by Invoke-Elevation in ps which is aliased to sudo.

It's supposed to be available in cmd and batch so it must be callable directly

I was more postulating what they probably would do if it were implemented directly in PowerShell

But, as it turns out, it's just sudo.exe in the command path
