Description
Only partially correct we did decommission some aircraft, MRAPs and Humvees but not all not close to it. The Taliban will sell much of it to China and Russia who will dissect them, learn from our technology and apply them to their own designs. We also left 100s of 1,000 of rifles and millions of rounds of ammunition, in all hundreds of billions in usable military hardware because Biden was in a rush to get out of Afghanistan. The tragedy here is Biden and his military advisors saw the Taliban taking control of the country being in March and did nothing to stop them nor remove the vast majority of military hardware simply abandoning all of it. Emails show Biden & his generals knew Afghanistan would fall to the Taliban long before they exercised their bad judgement.
Before leaving Afghanistan, our soldiers decommissioned every piece of aircraft and every land vehicle.
The only equipment that still functions are the fire trucks.
The U.S. equipment in Afghanistan is useless to the Taliban. They can sell it for parts or scrap. That is about it. Note: the only nation who could use these spare parts is the U.S. or our allies.
