The Narco Submarine was actually a low-profile vessel (LPV). It is relatively fast and hard to detect but the military-grade sensors on U.S. Navy aircraft and warships reduce the odds of them completing their voyage. H I Sutton (Photo USCG)
Forbes: Navy Makes Important Narco Submarine Capture
The narco-submarine may not have been expecting a guided missile destroyer to be bearing down on it. Until April this year, U.S. Navy warships were less often involved in drug submarine busts on the high seas. But the Trump administration’s new enhanced counter-narcotics operations has changed that, as a narco-sub found out on May 14. This may mark the start of a new age in narco-submarine interdiction.
Despite its inherent stealthiness the vessel was detected by a P-8 Poseidon from the VP-26 ‘Tridents’ squadron of the U.S. Navy. A destroyer, USS Pinckney, with a U.S. Coast Guard team aboard, then moved into position to intercept it. The destroyer’s SH-60 Sea Hawk helicopters and fast boats made the interdiction. This was the first reported narco-sub seizure since President Trump announced 'enhanced counter-narcotics operations' on April 1.

Large physical barriers with ground sensors only work if they are not built by a white man with orange hair. Because you know...racism? Dog whistles? Some unknown newtonian law. I'm sure Nancy will explain ..using her deep intellect and prayer capabilities.
Uhh sorry I've just thrown up in my mouth thinking about all that botox in her forehead. But you know. .we guys are the shallow ones. Not her. With all that makeup smeared over her face, those cosmetic surgeries, the implants. .WE are the shallow ones. Get it? She's a walking joke of human evolution. Frozen in time to appeal to someone. .anyone. .Any vote counts, she'll do what's necessary
