Really? Technology that makes drug courier jets invisible to the naked eye 
of pilots even as they insouciantly buzz a drug cop plane, but carelessly 
enough stealthed to be brightly visible in radar and the infrared?

They appeared to be flying at an altitude of about 3,500 meters (11,480 
feet), and allegedly surrounded the Air Force jet as it conducted routine 
anti-drug trafficking vigilance in Campeche. Only three of the objects 
showed up on the plane's radar. >
