Su-30 brought down the drug mafia

Su-30MK2 fighters of the Venezuelan Air Force shot down two drug maf aircraft after all attempts to force them to land at the airfield failed. This was the first interception after President Nicolas Maduro made the appropriate decision to strengthen the protection of airspace.

Maduro spoke on national television warning the drug mafia: “Any aircraft that enters the country's airspace will have to land at a local airfield. In case of disobedience, it will be shot down by our Su, F-16 fighters and using other military aircraft aviation Venezuelan Air Force. " In total, this year in the country 11 aircraft of the drug mafia at secret airfields were destroyed. Venezuelan intelligence agencies reported that 35 tons of drugs were seized during the operations. Su-30MK2 is a multi-functional fighter with wide combat capabilities. It is capable of hitting air, land and sea targets with high efficiency. The armament of the aircraft includes a built-in automatic quick-fire single-barrel gun of caliber 30 millimeters of the GSh-301 type with an ammunition load of 150 shells and missile and bomb weapons located at 12 suspension points under the wing and fuselage.

      It would not be bad for our "drug police" to learn from the effectiveness of the struggle. 35 tons of drugs! It is not for you to fight with pharmacies and prohibit painkillers. And from veterinary clinics our "drug fighters" have made knackers. Criminal imitation of the fight against real drug trafficking.

          An airplane with a propeller and machine guns mounted in the wing in the 21st century looks like a complete anachronism, however, such a machine turned out to be effective and popular. A-29 is successfully used in Latin America to fight the drug mafia, there are orders for it from countries from other regions of the world.

        A light-engine aircraft, following an unknown course, was spotted by the military over the state of Apure. He did not answer any requests and ignored the requirements for landing. As a result, the aircraft was shot down. Nothing is known about the fate of the crew.

        The authorities suspect that a large consignment of drugs could be on board the aircraft, ITAR-TASS reports. Venezuela has one of the main routes for transporting cocaine to the United States and Europe from neighboring Colombia.

        Alejandro Celeris, head of the Venezuelan National Drug Administration: “The drug mafia is trying to use our country as a transit territory for drug trafficking, violating our airspace.”

        This is not the first such case in the sky over Apute in the last month. At the beginning of last week, the Venezuelan military shot down two more light aircraft, whose pilots refused the demand for military pilots to land.
