Hello Frank Combating the drug smuggle is very dificult and costly. The location of the plantations is known there are nice satelite image software that can discriminate the clorophil wave length of the coca plants. The problem is to get there and destroy the plants without being killed. The cocain cartels are well armed and have a very good inteligence force. a military solution is not a very good option, then look at Afganistan since it is ocupaid by the UN forces and Eureopean and US forces the production of Opium has skyrocket. The best will be to combat the consume of the stuff, but that is not popular in the consuming contries. It is a complex problem. As far as I know the most important ingenner that designed the drug boats was arrested last year, may be that will bring some diferences. I hope there will be no problems with psubs in the future, smal planes are also used to smuggle almost everything and they are still aloud.
