How much is an F-15 worth, anyway? As much as $87 million USD. How about a Black Hawk helicopter? About $6 million USD.
Do we have an estimate of how much equipment is there? I heard Trump even mention tanks. How many of them?
Black Hawk helicopters a Gift from Joe
The 155mm howitzers the Taliban seized will make it difficult for the Air Force to use dirt strips in the countryside to withdraw the remaining troops if the Taliban decide to close the airport in Kabul. All those brave young Marines and Soldiers that the Biden cabal deployed in the last confusing moments are now at the tender mercies and whims of the Taliban. They will put up a hell of a fight but many more brave young Americans will be needlessly killed and maimed.
ChiComjoe, Commie Harris, SecDefComPoop, and the leadership of CENTCOM command need to be held accountable.
I think newer military Black Hawks are around $20 million.
What we seeing go down in Afghanistan simply cannot be ascribed to mere incompetence.
This was a sabotage job engineered to do the utmost harm to both Afghanistan and America, while greasing the skids for the Taliban, Pakistan, Iran and China in the most beneficial way possible.
The destruction of this military hardware prior to leaving should have been part of the departure plan. Any dog-faced, eighteen year old, pony-soldier knows this. The boys in the P are REALLY stupid.
That’s the way the Obozo planned it so the US could arm his fellow Muslim brethren and like with everything else, Jobama didn’t have a clue what he was doing. He just did what the Obozo cabal told him to do. Stolen elections have consequences.
Biden has to resign.
Just guessing here, but 300,000 + soldiers each with one M16 each that will have to be turned over to the Taliban.
Probably a few hundred hundred thousand more bench stock. No telling how many millions of rounds of 5.56
All paid for by American taxpayers.
But we’re suppose to consider turning our AR’s in because there are too many drive by shootings in $hit hole cities.
Irritates the hell out of me.
I suspect a lot of the military equipment has classified components that will also end up in Taliban hands.
De-fund the Pentagon and the ‘intelligence’ thugs... they ‘ve had enough adventures throwing away our blood and treasure.
Properly placed thermite grenades could have easily denied the Taliban anything more useful than a puddle of scrap metal.
Isn't just about all that military equipment we gave to the Afghan Army to use for its own defense? Were we supposed to take it back and bring it with us when we left?
Biden is a disgrace. He is putting Americans everywhere at heightened risk. He needs to shut down that Southern border NOW!!!
Part of the plan. biden was used as the useful idiot to turn a country * over to terrorists and to arm them. This was to take place just before the 20th anniversary of 9/11. Americans were to be left behind.
As a colossal act of contempt for this country, the incompetent old man is bringing in “30,000” refugees into this country. “30,000” means “the first wave.” There will be several waves. And they will go to Florida and Texas.
* Actually two countries: Afghanistan and the USA.
If we are not there, then they can only use the equipment against each other.
I say “Great!”
I predict that 50% will be useless in 3 years and only 10% will be working in 10 years. Our equipment has a substantial supply line requirement that the Taliban will not be interested in building.
Many of the armaments that were left behind require maintenance and technological expertise. These weapons will be junk soon.
