US Kills Suspected Drug Runner as Military Appears to Switch to Cheaper Firepower

US forces killed a suspected drug trafficker during a strike in international waters, but the attack looked different from recent operations. Instead of using an expensive missile, the vessel appears to have been destroyed with heavy cannon fire — possibly from an AC-130 gunship — signaling a shift in tactics. Previously, suspected drug-running boats were often targeted by MQ-9 Reaper drones firing Hellfire missiles that can cost around $150,000 each. #drone #cartel #drugtrafficker The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate, culture, fashion, and more.
