Hmm it’s an interesting question. I would say no for two reasons. The US has enough military power to do what they want overtly (see 2026), and I doubt the US could keep something like that quiet for long enough to matter. Surely something like that would have been leaked if anyone knew about it.
I mean yeah that’s kinda the point of sleeper cells.

The most conventionally powerful military won’t have nearly as much need to plan for being on the smaller side of an asymmetric war.
