The Facatativa Narco submarine

Colombia, The Facatativa narco-submarine, a fully steeled (rather than the usual fiberglass), double-hulled, fully submersible machine that was build to deliver cocaine anywhere in the world, had it been finished.



Found during a police raid in the year 2000, and with an alleged cost of 10 million dollars, its said this machine, which also had a sonar, was build with help from Russian/Ukrainian naval engineers, and was capable of delivering 200 tons of cocaine on a single trip, sailing 100 meters/300 feet underwater, and had an endurance of 2,500 kilometers/1,500 miles.



The most baffling part of an already baffling project is that it was build right in the middle of the country, in a mountainous town located over 2,500 meter/8,200 feet over sea level.



As no arrest where made, it’s still unclear how they intended to get this to the coast, as the warehouse in which it was found showed signs that they actually intended to complete it there.
