Mexican drug gangs are building tanks.
Uhm... dude. Just.... duuuude! That is some serious shit goin' on down there. All funded by the War On Drugs, which is what makes drug dealing so profitable compared to when I was a little kid. When I was a little kid gangs were lucky to be able to afford a knife. So now, they're building fucking tanks?! That's some serious dough, yo!

Well, Colombian drug gangs have been building submarines for years (as the story notes). And drug smugglers had air forces even back in the 1970s. So how long before they branch into ballistic missiles? 1-tonne payload of coke, delivered on an arc from Chihuahua to a general vicinity in the Arizona desert, with a radio transmitter broadcasting on a frequency only the narcotraficantes know? Sounds cost-effective to me!
