The version of this story I heard was that they detected the "emissions that
were necessary for an aircraft to fly at low altitudes". I have no idea which
emissions they were referring to (or even if the press got it correct), and
whether these emissions would be "on" in wartime or not.

Anyway, the story didn't say anything about detecting the stealth plane
with RADAR.
