Secret CIA technology made it possible to locate and rescue the American pilot of the F-15 shot down in southern Iran, in an unprecedented operation that combined different types of advanced tools and military equipment.
According to sources close to the operation to The New York Post, this futuristic system used by the CIA, called “Ghost Murmur”, was key to locating the second pilot who remained missing in a remote area of the Iranian desert.
The system combines long-range quantum magnetometry with artificial intelligence to detect the electromagnetic fingerprint of the human heartbeat, making it possible to isolate it even in extremely hostile environments.
“It's like hearing a voice in a stadium, only that the stadium is a thousand square miles of desert,” a source informed about the program explained. “Under the right conditions, if your heart beats, we'll find you,” he added, graphing the level of precision achieved by this technology

The operation, which involved hundreds of military personnel, took place under complex conditions. During the mission, two rescue aircraft were trapped in the ground, forcing additional reinforcements to be deployed and, eventually, to destroy the stuck planes to prevent their technology from falling into Iranian hands. Despite these setbacks, the operation was completed without
