Biden’s Gift to Taliban Included 110 Helicopters, 20 Light Attack Airplanes, 42,000 Light Attack Vehicles, 25,000 Grenade Launchers

If you thought the Joe Biden Afghanistan disaster was bad now – things are going to get much worse.
Joe Biden supplied the Taliban terrorist organization and their Islamist accomplices with billions of dollars worth of US armaments.


Rather than destroying the equipment before leaving the country, Joe Biden decided to leave the nearly $85 billion worth of US military equipment to the Taliban.

Here is a breakdown of estimated vehicle costs:

Armored personnel carriers such as the M113A2 cost $170,000 each and recent purchases of the M577A2 post carrier cost $333,333 each.
Mine resistant vehicles ranges from $412,000 to $767,000. The total cost could range between $382 million to $711 million.
Recovery vehicles such as the ‘truck, wrecker’ cost between for the base model $168,960 and $880,674 for super strength versions.
Medium range tactical vehicles include 5-ton cargo and general transport trucks were priced at $67,139. However, the family of MTV heavy vehicleshad prices ranging from $235,500 to $724,820 each. Cargo trucks to transport airplanes cost $800,865.
Humvees – ambulance type (range from $37,943 to $142,918 with most at $96,466); cargo type, priced at $104,682. Utility Humvees were typically priced at $91,429. However, the 12,000 lb. troop transport version cost up to $329,000.
Light tactical vehicles: Fast attack combat vehicles ($69,400); and passenger motor vehicles ($65,500). All terrain 4-wheel vehicles go up to $42,273 in the military databases.

All this just further convinces me that the war itself was a terrible idea.

@Burnley123 Thank you for your safe and unhelpful comment!

@Budwick Hardly. Did you support the war at the start?

From what I know of your politics, its probable that you did.

@Budwick That comment was safe, helpful and coming from someone who lives in the land of make believe.

@Burnley123 Burnley - Welcome to the planet.

This post and pretty much all the news is not about the start of the war, but Biden's miserable performance at the end.

So, if you have something to contribute - to the topic at hand - have it.

Otherwise, head back to the pub.

@Korrupted lol. I live in-between Hogwarts and Narnia. Most wars Britain fights have unicorns and white walkers.

@Budwick Biden’s performance in regards to this withdrawal is miserable, but the manner in which it is done is an insult to all the men in service who lost their lives there.

@Korrupted
an insult to all the men in service who lost their lives there.

And, to the ones that came home too!

@Budwick My error, I forgot to mention them too.
Budwick · 70-79, M
@Korrupted No error!
I only wanted to emphasize my agreement.
