Yeah, the US military protects new technology with patents so the publicly accessible documents can be shared to our advesaries.

Or it’s stuff that we know they already know about.
I used to read Defense Science magazine and it was really surprising what was in there; it was explained to me that if we’re publishing it, the other side already knows about it.

Many patents (i.e. weapons) are classified. Not publicly disclosed.
The first atomic bomb was patented.
