Title: Submarine drones?
Post by: nanpa2001 on January 14, 2013, 04:28 am
Is there any such thing as a submarine drone for the importation of drugs?

These days surely it must be possible for even a hobbyist (albeit well funded one) to build one?

Take a look at wiki article for some info:

I know a little bit about this area. Do not fucking around like this near major US ports.  They have very serious counter-terrorism measures in place that may not only detect something like this but may bring the entire weight of the patriot act down on your ass.

Can you elaborate a little on that?

Im not gona go into details about current technology but even during the cold war all major ports had sensor networks that could detect the smallest change in water temperature to correlate with clandestine submarine/drone/torpedo action.  Now for this kind of thing the technology is limitless and with the attack on that warship there is a lot of focus in this area.  If you do anything like this stay away from populated areas.

DrDeepWood,

How about a 'school' of tiny submarines that carry about a kilo each?

I dont think any device would be worth the risk in a large port area, if you are in the middle of nowhere you could just consolidate into a large narco sub. My advice is just for a specific situation.
