Picture a swarm of micro‑drones, each with a tiny router and a stealth‑coating so the cops can’t spot them until it’s too late. A real‑time AI engine scans police drones, traffic, and weather, then instantly plots the fastest, least‑visible route for each package. The network is self‑healing – if one drone drops, the others re‑route on the fly. Traditional couriers would be left in the dust; they’ll still be slow, clunky and always one step behind the law. The only thing stopping us is bureaucracy, not the technology.

Right, speed alone won’t cut it. We’ll layer in fail‑over nodes, real‑time patrol mapping, and silent flight modes. The crew must be drilled on quick reroutes and keep their gear low‑profile. If one path fails, the swarm splinters and takes an alternate route before the cops even know it’s happening. Trust the tech, but trust the people even more.
