The US has technology that gathers all radio communication and can provide exact coordinates. This capability was executed from a small plane in air space above the target. Consider the technology used to hunt Escobar, but modern and on steroids.  This technology should strike fear in future cartel communications.      

It should be noted that, in the days of listening to those conversations, they not only managed to locate Ovidio Guzmán. They also collected information about the activities of the Cartel and its structure, as well as their paramilitary and counterintelligence capabilities. 
 
Data compiled from US intel in Excel shows the level of accuracy.

  4. "Cholon Vago" Special Forces"

    El Cholo Vago aka El Cholo Ivan was El Chapo's main security guy who was arrested with him. He is currently in prison .
    It seems Kaibles have worked for every major cartel in Mexico.
    They are highly sought after for their special skills and brutality ,which is why Lazcano Z3 hired so many .
