Doesn't the military plant similar devices on
: strategic beaches to discourage waterborne invasion?

They do in movies! I saw those big beach tiddley-winks in Saving Private Ryan and recently in the new James Bond movie. Personally, I have never seen them in real life anywhere including long beaches near big AF flight lines. Maybe the Navy or Coast Guard has them in storage somewhere incase they are needed.
