Hell, this is Usenet, why not. I suspect that there just isn't all
that much communication between the military and ATC. I suspect the
military doesn't want to say much, and ATC has learned to live with it.

But maybe some controllers would know more.

Maybe you would pay attention to the posters here who have indicated
that they are experienced military aviators. Then what you "suspect"
could be adjusted to fit what you have learned.

Every flight, every day, by the military is on a flight plan. All
operations are conducted under IFR flight plans, which means that
before the aircraft rolls down the runway the flight has an ATC
clearance.

The military has learned to live with ATC.
