If not then lmao, just leaving fucking helicopters for your enemy to take. Of course, they probably don’t have access to the fuel and tools needed to keep them up, but it also wouldn’t shock me if they just left all the tools and repair manuals behind in a (loosely) locked closet with a sign saying ‘Blackhawk maintenance equipment in here’ in English, Pashto, Dari, and Farsi

They didn’t even do that, at least in some instances. There were videos of Taliban fighters confirming they functioned along with finding documentation, tools, and supplies. I’m sure someone did the math and decided it wasn’t worth the cost to transport out all that stuff.

Couldn’t even be bothered to toss some thermite onto the sensitive bits
‘Best military in the world’ though everybody
There’s also videos of them crashing the helos because no one knows how to fly them.
Plus, those things require a ton of maintenance.
