Or you could I dunno, use a drone? What benefit is there to use a pigeon for any of this? The issue isn't the payload it's the platform.

Sure, fine. At no point was I making any argument for or against this technology. Maybe it works, maybe it doesn't, maybe it's a waste of time, maybe it's the future of aerial surveillance, maybe it's just propaganda. The only argument I'm making here is that there's nothing far fetched about a pigeon flying thousands of kilometers, that's totally normal. I'm pretty confident in this because I have first hand evidence that birds are actually really good at flying, and sometimes they fly very long distances.
