Deep in our oceans hides a secret world; thousands of illegal drug submarines, each carrying more than three tons of drugs, worth millions on the black market. The submarines are very well-built and hard to detect! But what happens when the US Coast Guard comes face to face with these criminals?
The scale of this underworld operation is growing day by day. How are they caught? What is found inside these shady submarines?
It should not surprise you that there have been quite a number of instances where the US Coast Guard has intercepted huge drug trafficking operations. In fact, there are some pretty recent occurrences too!
The event of September 2019 involving a submarine transporting illicit substances vividly underscored the critical importance of the US Coast Guard. In a remarkable display of their capabilities, the US Coast Guard intercepted and apprehended a submarine carrying a staggering 12,000 pounds of illicit drugs. This operation was a collaborative effort between the Coast Guard, US Navy, and international partners.
The interception took place in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, a known hotbed for drug trafficking activities. The Coast Guard Cutter Munro, equipped with advanced surveillance and detection systems, detected the presence of a self-propelled semi-submersible vessel (SPSS) navigating suspiciously in the open waters.
