The U.S.-Mexico border has long been a key focus for national security in both countries. In recent months, U.S. authorities have introduced new aerial surveillance strategies, using advanced aircraft to monitor potential illegal activities.
Among the aircraft deployed are maritime patrol planes, traditionally used for anti-submarine warfare, but now repurposed for data collection and land surveillance. These planes are equipped with high-precision radar, infrared sensors, and communication interception systems, allowing them to detect suspicious movements across large areas.
According to the aviation news media Aeroin, | The data collected is transmitted in real time to response teams in the area, helping to carry out operations in high-risk zones.
This approach highlights the growing militarization of border surveillance, as technology originally developed for international conflicts is now being used for domestic security. While some support the strategy, others raise concerns about its impact on migration and U.S.-Mexico relations.
