Reported roles for Claude in the operation included:
• Intelligence assessments
• Target identification
• Battlefield simulations $ETH
The use persisted because Claude was already deeply integrated into military workflows, and Pentagon systems reportedly require a transition period to replace it — despite the Trump administration publicly designating Anthropic a security risk and banning its use by federal agencies. $SOL
