I'm always surprised that nobody has asked the US Navy if they heard anything. It's somewhat well known that US nuclear subs hang out in the Indian Ocean, and they have big ears.

My personal opinion is several countries militaries know where it’s at, but fear they could reveal highly sensitive capabilities.

My best guess is that its in their best intrist not to. We know the navy has super precise microphones underwater to detect weapons feasting both conventional and nuclear, as well as using the sensors to monitor for ship activity....like sub's or unmanned water drones. I'd assume that if they release any info on if they heard something via a sub or some sensor.....its basically burning an intelligence asset, as it ca…

Could they perhaps secretly tell the exact location to the Australian Navy (which is a close ally), which will then say they found it during the normal search operations?
