this is such a classic, well trodden propaganda tool i'm surprised anyone here falls for it.

tell the public about an incredibly advanced piece of tech that simultaneously justifies the $1 trillion+ military budget, makes people fear the sophistication of our government (prevent dissidence internally) and distract from otherwise embarrassing flaws in the war so far.

it's like how trump releases "proof" of aliens ever time he wants to distract from a new epstein files bombshell.

if you believe this i've got a bridge to sell you.
