Grupo Escorpión Hitman Is Carrying An AT4

"Sol Prendido" for Borderland Beat

Are the 'Ukrainian' weapons already in Mexico?" was the image published by the Russian embassy in Mexico where it claims that a member of a Tamaulipas cartel is carrying a Swedish-American AT4 anti-tank rocket launcher.

Video translation is as follows:

Érika González: Today the Russian embassy in Mexico tweeted this tweet to expose the following. They wanted to draw everyone’s attention to the Swedish-American made anti-tank weapon carried by a representative of one of the Mexican cartels in the state of Tamaulipas.

Ciro Gómez Leyva: Is this not a meme?

Érika González: It’s not a meme. This is from the official account of the Russian embassy in Mexico. And they posted this photo that also went viral. As we can see in the picture this is an alleged hitman.

Ciro Gómez Leyva: This is a hitman?

Érika González: Yes, from the Gulf Cartel carrying an AT-4. And according to the Russian embassy this type of weapon is currently being sent to Ukraine. And they said verbatim: While the West continues to supply weapons without thinking to the Kiev regime and making a lot of money from this business. We will probably unexpectedly see the consequences of these actions in Mexico.

Ciro Gómez Leyva: This isn’t a meme?

  3. Ukraine has always been a corupt country. They probably have a black market for some of the military aid the receive.

    Although it does not compare to all the military weapons Joe Biden gave the Taliban or the Military weapons Obama gave to the cartels (Fast and Furious)

    7. 8:18 PM The weapons Ukraine is getting are the cream of the cream best stuff NATO can send. What Ukraine is getting doesn't compare to anything the Taliban or Obama gave have own. The drones that Ukraine is using imagine those beauties in the hands of mad men. Assassinations easy just fly that bad boy over the target drop the ordinance and watch them go boom. The convoys are dead meat. AT weapons ambushes on convoys by the min. dead meat. ATGMs place one of those bad boys on a hill or anywhere with a clear view and blow up anything. Manpads wait for the birds to fly and bam they gone in seconds. Explosives, mines. Cartels only need ATGMs, Manpads, Drones, explosives, mines they have everything else. Then they will be able to give anyone real problems. Don't get me wrong they have drones already but at the level that the Ukrainians have not even close. Ukraine is a war. What NATO fought in the last 30 years is playing wack a mole with kids. A soldier in those wars was most likely to die living in the US then dying in the conflict zone.

  5. This ain't sack riding like the rest of you punks this just really made me think. Seems like Matamoros has looked like a top tier cartel. Someone is backing these guys up. On another site is mentioned earlier today that escorpion attacked mencho himself.. wtf is going on anyone with real info. Seems like someone is helping them big time. Are they the new super cartel or a string of good luck making them look bigger

    4. Matamoros dont need backing. They have plenty of border to smuggle shit in the usa and from usa to mexico. They run the state government because the governor is backed by them. The fact that la kena is still running around fighting the metros after usa civilians got killed in his city tells you the pull the cartel has.

      Delete
  6. So what's the Mexican government going to do?
    They aren't going to do anything. I'm quite sure European mafias have some too; all thanks to Ukraine. Enjoy the party.

    1. There's always some of these on the move here in Nordic area. Since The Great Nordic Biker Wars, we have had these,here in the North-eastern EU countries. The storages are in the middle of nowhere and all nordic countries use em.. Before AT4's they had/used Carl Gustavs.. During Hell's Angel's vs Bandidos war they popped each others clubhouses with these here in Finland,Sweden and Denmark..

  7. The thing is the scorpions are well armed because they border the US . They have access to a lot of weapons that way. Not much of a logistical problem like other cartels having to get it not only across the border either way but also deep into Mexico. Its just crossing the border. Plus there sooo much money right now in migrant crossing, more than there has ever been. Which has always been a huge money maker.(primito via cmdte Chino is said to in part fund the cjng war in michoacan and GTO ysing the money from his Pollero bizz as parr of the agreement/alliance).. They often times have deals worked out with other cartels to pass dope thru their plazas for a fee. Which benefits them immensely. The entire state of Tam is very advanced compared to other rural states and has aa big market for consumption itself.

    1. Michoacán is in charge of Tamps that whole “advanced” bs is all in part of due to all the money and influence Michoacán capos have on said state.

      Comment lol.
      Michoacán has no work,
      No jale.
      The people have to go around taxing Aguacateros to make feds.
      The people saying Michoacan is on top are just Michoacanos.
      If you go to most pueblos in Michoacan,
      The people have left in massive numbers.
      I’m from
      Huetamo, a small town called La Mesa de Totalan.
      It’s empty as fuck now!! Because there ain’t work,
      Only harassment from cartels

  10. Yes, it’s so wrong isn’t it everybody always blaming the cartels for this and blaming the cartels for that what about everybody else? How many don’t all Mexican citizens go around killing and raping and pillaging and extorting… You know a few hundreds of thousands of people end up dead on video on the Internet and people get upset I don’t know why they got to blame the cartels all the time, though the weapons, dealers and manufactures have zero ethics and morality when it comes to making a buck

    Asi como Los Metros tambien han sacado armas muy cabronas para las fotos

    ¿Alguien recuerda a Bravo1 de ZVE sacando rockets con el nombre de un NORESTE y viceversa?
    Bueno toda esa parafernalia de los RPG's sirvio solo para las fotos y hacer presión Gubernamental en ellos mismos por exhibir ese tipo de armas puesto que lo mas seguro no saben manipular al 100%

    Si mal no recuerdo El Chapo cuando cayo en La Mochila no dejo tiradas muy sofisticadas que al final de nada le sirvieron y solo mal gastó su dinero en ellas.

    Al final Ametralladoras, Granadas de Mano, Lanza Granadas 40 mm y el famoso Barret es lo que terminan usando

  24. Color-Coding. M136 AT4 launchers are marked with color-coded bands (Figure 3-5). A black with yellow band indicates an HE antiarmor round (early models had a solid black band). A gold or yellow band indicates a field handling trainer; no band indicates an M287 9-mm tracer bullet trainer

  28. @ 8:41, YVW. My intention was to demonstrate that the yellow band indicates that this is an inert field handling trainer, there is no HE warhead in this particular weapon. The sub caliber version uses a 9mm barrel inserted into the weapon. I’ve fired hundreds of rounds of the sub caliber variety.

  34. Russians been taking weapons from dead soldiers or from areas where Ukraine soldiers left because they were outnumbered, The Russian Mob has most of these weapons and been selling them in the black market to Cartels in Mexico, Brazil and Colombia. This is 100% pure Russian propaganda to hurt Ukraine and the USA.

  35. Anything Russians say is automatically a lie.

  36. The yellow band means it is inert, it is a dummy for training or getting enemies to believe you have them, either way, who cares, they have had similar armament for years, in these and other anti tank weapons stolen or bought from central and South American arsenals and troops. Doubt arms are in Mexico from Ukraine, but with the volume of arms, can be sore some seepage will and has ended up in the world arms black market. The Balkan war was tiny in scale compared to Ukraine, and there are still readily available arms from that conflict easily bought all over Europe, even in Scandinavia and Western Europe.
