The absence of any official US military program or policy announcement involving offensive marine mammal operations underpins traders' near-unanimous view that confirmation will not occur by May 31. Pentagon briefings in early May treated related inquiries as lighthearted, with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Joint Chiefs Chairman Dan Caine dismissing claims about Iranian capabilities while noting the Navy's longstanding Marine Mammal Program focuses on detection and harbor protection rather than kamikaze-style attacks. Historical patterns show these assets have remained limited to non-lethal reconnaissance roles since declassification in the 1990s. A sudden declassification, leaked directive, or unexpected executive statement within the narrow remaining window could still shift the outcome, though no such catalyst appears imminent based on current institutional activity.
