The devices can still be transported to the south Atlantic off the Central American coast for a ship to small ship transfer. The cartels specialize in small subs. Then the device could be delivered off the coast of southern Florida by a suicide bomber in a small sub and detonated or a number of small drones with high explosives and incendiaries could be launched from just offshore.
