Oh, man. The cartels will surely use these to bring in cocaine from well below to well beyond the border. It can carry almost 3 kilos. Give it GPS guidance and all they have to do is launch it. I assume it can fly under the radar.
Most drugs are brought over by boat. 3 kilos at a time probably doesn't even register to cartels.
Why worry about the drone when the Russians have just unveiled a Kalashnikov-made EV that will compete with Tesla for less money:

The drone looks pretty simple with antenna system in the vertical stabilizers. I want to see the guidance system. It looks like a camera in the nose. I'm guessing this thing could take out an armored limousine.

3k's will net 3x that amount once cut up and distributed.
Create a shortage, creates a demand,creating an increase in street value. 10 drones will produce 90 possibly more depending how they cut it. Junkies getting a diluted product only want more
Distract border resources to track the drones, allows who knows how many kilos to pass through bytrucks and sea ports. The trafficking will never halt, until the demand stops.
This isn't complicated technology.
