After 7 Years and $86 Million, DEA’s Spy Plane for Afghanistan Never Used on Afghan Missions
allgov.com
In 2008, the Drug Enforcement Administration bought a plane.
Drug trafficking has long been known to fund terrorist groups, and the DEA wanted to put this aircraft to use in Afghanistan.
With help from the Department of Defense, the agency planned to outfit the $8.6 million, twin-propeller passenger aircraft with surveillance equipment and other bells and whistles.
More than seven years and $86 million later, however, the plane still rests on its jacks. An audit (pdf) from the Office of the Inspector General released Wednesday says it never flew in Afghanistan and is unlikely to do so ever, as this July marks one year since the DEA wound down its operations in the country.
