EXTENDS AROUND THE WORLD.
817
00:40:01,165 --> 00:40:03,801
FBI INVESTIGATIONS
SHOW HIS OPERATION
818
00:40:03,868 --> 00:40:06,170
IS QUASI-MILITARY IN SCALE,
819
00:40:06,237 --> 00:40:09,340
RELYING ON DRUGS
AS ITS NUMBER-ONE BUSINESS.
820
00:40:09,407 --> 00:40:12,209
RUSSIA ITSELF ISN'T A PRODUCER
OF THESE DRUGS,
821
00:40:12,276 --> 00:40:15,012
BUT IT'S EFFECTIVELY
A FUNNELING HUB
822
00:40:15,079 --> 00:40:17,948
FOR ALL THESE NARCOTICS
INTO WESTERN MARKETS.
823
00:40:18,015 --> 00:40:19,216
{\an8}HEROINE IS PRODUCED
824
00:40:19,283 --> 00:40:22,553
{\an8}IN UZBEKISTAN, TURKMENISTAN,
AND AFGHANISTAN,
825
00:40:22,620 --> 00:40:24,155
AND RUSSIA IS THE PERFECT PLACE
826
00:40:24,221 --> 00:40:26,223
TO SMUGGLE IT THROUGH
TO GET TO EUROPE.
827
00:40:26,290 --> 00:40:29,293
Narrator:
ONE OF THE MOST ESTABLISHED
BRATVA TRAFFICKING ROUTES
828
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:32,363
IS FROM TAJIKISTAN
TO ROSTOV-ON-DON, RUSSIA --
829
00:40:32,430 --> 00:40:35,900
LESS THAN 25 MILES
FROM WHERE THE PLANE LANDS.
830
00:40:35,966 --> 00:40:37,935
THIS CAN'T BE A COINCIDENCE.
831
00:40:38,002 --> 00:40:39,503
Narrator: BUT ONE DETAIL
832
00:40:39,570 --> 00:40:43,107
MAKES STACY RAMKISOON
DOUBT THIS EXPLANATION.
833
00:40:43,174 --> 00:40:45,810
SO, DRUG SMUGGLING IS PRETTY
UNLIKELY IN THIS SITUATION
834
00:40:45,876 --> 00:40:47,678
BECAUSE YOU'D WANT
TO BE DOING IT IN PRIVATE
835
00:40:47,745 --> 00:40:50,014
RATHER THAN IN FRONT OF A BUNCH
OF TOURISTS ON A BEACH,
836
00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:51,682
SO IT MUST BE SOMETHING ELSE.
837
00:40:51,749 --> 00:40:53,784
[ CAMERA WHIRS ]
838
00:40:55,152 --> 00:40:59,089
Narrator:
AEROSPACE EXPERT MARNA KAGELE
RETURNS TO THE IMAGE.
839
00:40:59,156 --> 00:41:01,325
SHE REALIZES IT
HAS A KEY FEATURE
840
00:41:01,392 --> 00:41:04,895
THAT DISTINGUISHES IT FROM OTHER
AIRLINERS OF THIS SIZE.
841
00:41:06,597 --> 00:41:10,234
IT LOOKS LIKE THERE'S
A STRUCTURE ABOVE THE WINGS.
842
00:41:10,301 --> 00:41:11,702
THE STRUCTURES WE'RE SEEING
ON TOP OF THE WINGS
843
00:41:11,769 --> 00:41:12,903
ARE ACTUALLY THE ENGINES.
844
00:41:12,970 --> 00:41:14,505
THIS EVIDENCE POINTS TO A PLANE
845
00:41:14,572 --> 00:41:16,807
THAT HAS BEEN SPECIFICALLY
DESIGNED
846
00:41:16,874 --> 00:41:19,076
FOR WATER LANDING AND TAKEOFF,
847
00:41:19,143 --> 00:41:21,812
AND THAT'S THE BERIEV BE-200.
848
00:41:23,547 --> 00:41:27,451
Narrator:
THE BERIEV BE-200 PLANE
IS A VERY RARE AIRCRAFT.
849
00:41:28,953 --> 00:41:31,856
{\an8}ITS JOB -- FIREFIGHTING.
850
00:41:31,922 --> 00:41:35,759
{\an8}IT'S ABLE TO HOLD AN INCREDIBLE
12 TONS OF WATER,
851
00:41:35,826 --> 00:41:38,929
{\an8}WHICH IT SCOOPS UP
BY SKIMMING WATER SURFACES
852
00:41:38,996 --> 00:41:41,565
{\an8}AT UP TO 100 MILES PER HOUR.
853
00:41:41,632 --> 00:41:43,400
{\an8}THIS IS THE ONLY PLANE
THAT I KNOW OF
854
00:41:43,467 --> 00:41:45,636
{\an8}THAT CAN DO THESE KINDS
OF MANEUVERS --
855
00:41:45,703 --> 00:41:46,871
{\an8}THAT CAN LAND ON THE WATER,
856
00:41:46,937 --> 00:41:48,939
{\an8}PICK UP THE WATER THIS QUICKLY,
AND TAKE OFF.
857
00:41:49,006 --> 00:41:51,509
{\an8}THIS AIRPLANE IS AMAZING.
858
00:41:51,575 --> 00:41:54,311
{\an8}Folta: IT'S BRILLIANT INNOVATION
AND BRILLIANT ENGINEERING.
859
00:41:54,378 --> 00:41:57,348
{\an8}THIS TRULY IS AN AMAZING,
AMAZING AIRCRAFT.
860
00:41:57,414 --> 00:41:59,083
{\an8}WHEN IT COMES TO
THAT KIND OF INGENUITY,
861
00:41:59,149 --> 00:42:01,652
{\an8}YOU CAN NEVER
UNDERESTIMATE THE RUSSIANS.
