More good news;

“between 2003 and 2016, the United States transferred 75,898 vehicles, 599,690 weapons, 162,643 pieces of communications equipment, 208 aircraft, and 16,191 pieces of intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance equipment to Afghan forces, according to a 2017 Government Accountability Office report. From 2017 to 2019, the United States also gave Afghan forces 7,035 machine guns, 4,702 Humvees, 20,040 hand grenades, 2,520 bombs and 1,394 grenade launchers, among other equipment"

"Since 2001, the U.S. has spent $83 billion on Afghan security forces through training and equipment"
Putting them 55th in the world on yearly military budget. $4.1Billion/yr.

Between the sales of weapons and their use, everyone is in trouble. Good thing they wont have an Air force or Navy...
