The hunt for a cocaine submarine

[bman]

The Men have been sent deep into the Peruvian jungle to look for a cocaine submarine that is believed to be responsible for more than 200 tons of the illegal drug in the United States.

Once it is found the orders read "Remove sub from service at all costs" Then try to make it back to extraction point, x-ray for removal.

With the help of their CIA escort they should be able to find and destroy with out to much trouble.............NOT!

I watched a really interesting documentary on them. They started out as vessels with a low chance of making it through the pacific because their pilots were dying from heat exhaustion and suffocation from diesel. Now they're getting ex-soviet sub engineers designing these things and they're difficult to find.

Did you know Pablo Escobar's empire was so powerful, that there was a time that he actually approached the Russians for nuclear submarine? Crazy huh?
