Drug delivery drone crashes in Mexico

[Angelus2141]

A drone carrying illegal drugs has crashed near a US border crossing in Mexico.

The quadcopter carrying 3kg (6.6lb) of methamphetamine was found in pieces in a supermarket car park near San Ysidro.

 

 

Well amazon is trialing drone delivery and now so are the drug makers. This brings up a question ive been thinking about for a while. Anti-drone technology to protect important buildings and the like. What can you use to protect them also im thinking investing in anti-drone technology might be a good idea as IMO it will soon be as much of a growth industry as drones themselves.

This will become a thing. Almost no way to find the poeple who flew them. But hey, they will always find a way.

Rapere seems like it'll do a decent job

 

[snoop doggie dogg]

that's fucking genius 

[HaZardousLP]

I saw this yesterday and I was kind of blown away by how genius the idea is... I mean some of these new drones can do up to 2km, that's plenty for a border crossing, with virtually no consequences apart from the odd shipment not making it. ez money ez life for those cartels now

[Phillyphries]

lol the military/border control will have radar and other things to detect these things flying

[PercySavageEG]

you could say that they were "high" up in the air

 

That was such a bad joke but I can't help myself from saying it

We just need real life NCIS team to do so

that's fucking genius

Add some camo look to it or cover it in reflective paint and u got perfection. Guys with binaculars can gtfo

In front of an store? Why would you fly a drone with drugs over a supermarket?  <_<

[Crazy Ginger]

Well, time to get the good ol AA guns out of our storehouses

[That Norwegian Guy]

Well, time to get the good ol AA guns out of our storehouses

 

And thus began the crack flak weapons race.

[Crazy Ginger]

Actually, those AA lasers the navy has might be more accurate than guns.  Well that settles it... LINE THE BORDERS WITH SUPA MEGA DEATH LAZORS OF DOOM!

[Tech_Dreamer]

DAMMIT TARAN!!

 

 

  :lol:

[Bloodyvalley]

this is genius

[Misanthrope]

That shows you how we Mexicans can be on the bleeding edge of technology.....as long as it's used for evil of course.

Soon they will be strong enough to carry a grown man out of prison jk he will just get shot before he gets over the fence lol

 

but dropping weapons and narcotics into prison is a thing i think maybe they need anti drone missiles on prison walls now?

or a net over the yard, i mean use your brain

[ShadowCaptain]

shit my drugs

 

I mean

 

those arent mine

The signature on drones is extremely small, so it could look like a large bird. They'll undoubtedly develop countermeasures against this, but I doubt that standard radar will be effective to a large degree.

They might, but I don't think they have AA...

[ForsakenLive]

With the Amazon octa-copters I bet you can move even more drugs!

[Trik'Stari]

They might, but I don't think they have AA...

They will now lol.

 

We need to build a giant wall (not a fence) on the US:Mexican boarder anyways. It would create at least a few temporary jobs, and stop the illegal immigration problem we are having.

[Slash003]

That's fucking genius. Untraceable drone and drugs and hard to detect it has drugs. Flies fast and can transport discretely. These are the smart ones at breaking the law unlike the morons with the iPad

[TheMidnightNarwhal]

They will now lol.

I would shoot 'em down. Anyone who tries to cross my country without authorization would be shot, but eh i ain't in USA nor do I have my own country, ah.
