Default Mexico Border TFR No that bad

That idea was beaten to death a few days ago. There are a bunch of
challenges like the C182 being able to carry the fuel and sensors
needed. The TFR is night time so the Mark 1 eyeball isn't going to hack
it.

The most interesting part of this is the cost of the UAV. Many times
that of a C182 with crew. I don't understand why they don't just get a
couple 182 crews with similar equipment installed.

Perhaps a Hellfire launcher STC for the 182 is not available.

No. Latest is that we annex Mexico and they all then become American
Citizens and that eliminates the border problem )

We now have Mexican soldiers crossing our south border. Even have
video of two of them.
