Colombia Seizes First Narco Drone Sub on Test Run in South America

"Socalj" for Borderland Beat


The Colombian navy on Wednesday announced its first seizure of an unmanned narco sub equipped with a Starlink antenna off its Caribbean coast.

The semi submersible vessel was not carrying drugs, but the Colombian navy and Western security sources based in the region believed it was a trial run by a cocaine trafficking cartel.

"It was being tested and was empty," a naval spokeswoman confirmed.

Manned semisubmersibles built in clandestine jungle shipyards have been used for decades to ferry cocaine north from Colombia, the world's biggest cocaine producer, to Central America or Mexico.

But in recent years, they have been sailing much farther, crossing the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.



The latest find, announced by Admiral Juan Ricardo Rozo at a press conference, is the first reported discovery in South American waters of a drone narco sub. In May 2024, Italian police announced the seizure of a small remote-controlled sub likely intended to transport drugs as part of an international drug trafficking network.

The Colombian navy said the drone semi submersible was owned by the Gulf Clan, Colombia's largest drug trafficking group and had the capacity to transport 1.5 tons of cocaine.

A video released by the Navy showed a small grey vessel with a satellite antenna on the bow.

This is not the first time a Starlink antenna has been used at sea by suspected drug traffickers.

In November, Indian police seized a giant 6 ton consignment of meth worth ₹4.25 billion ($49 million USD) in a vessel steered remotely by Starlink near the remote Andaman and Nicobar islands.

It was the first known discovery of a narco sub operated by Starlink.

    4. 6 tons = 12,000 pounds.
      454 grams in a pound.
      454 X 12,000= 5,448,000

      4.2 billion divided by 5,448,000 comes out to about $770 per gram.

      Price seems a little steep! 🙀

    9. $4.25B is probably rupees not US $. This conversion puts the actual value at about $8.33 per gram. This sounds like a reasonable wholesale price in that part of the world.

      I see peso valuations reported as $ fairly often.

    10. It's priced in rupee.

    2. 006 didn't leave, he is just a wee bit too busy right now to be posting comments at this time.
      I dunno if you've heard, but it's been in the news..
      Sinaloa is on FIRE, and 006 is basically manning the fort all by his lonesome!
      Send reinforcements, quick!

    3. He would always talk about his 6G tablet and communications . I think what he really meant is he was connecting with Starlink .

      I just saw a video onbthe news of a Mossad Operator in Iran dressed in all black with night vision headset on. The first thing that came to my my mind was his famous phrase "animo sicarios".
