> More likely, the story is designed to make the public believe that US propaganda is actually aimed at the "foreign adversary" rather than at the US population. Or some kind of cover story to distract from the real technology. If they really used some kind of advanced beacon, but they can convince people it's actually some kind of crazy-advanced heartbeat-detector, they can discourage their adversaries from looking for the beacon signal. |

I thought the exact same thing the moment I saw it. LPI (low probability of intercept) beacon just makes so much more sense (in the kit the pilot ejects with... has existed for decades). Why would they bother detecting heartbeats? They might not even detect the right one or trigger on an animal or whatever.
