Afghanistan earlier today — Taliban lost a UH-60A Black Hawk helicopter near Marshal Military Academy in Kabul. Eight people are reportedly dead.
VIDEOS AT LINK........................
Bahgram should have been destroyed.
Upon leaving you ruin that runway, you take out every aircraft you leave, every piece of equipment..........this wasn’t a mistake it was a pay off no media outlet will report on.
We are strong!
Because the Biden Admin is full of idiots and grifters......................
How about another Old Fashioned? Don’t make it so sweet this time.
Uh....that’s the way Joe planned all this..... killing 8 Taliban or more each time they crash one of our $14 million dollar Blackhawks we left them. /s
I hope that all eight of the dead evil bastards screamed in terror all the way to the ground.
How much a piece for those 8 considering the cost of a Blackhawk?
Was it 6 million bucks a head?
Is that higher or lower than the costs of that war?
That’s not the point, I am not taking the fruitless view of the incident. I don’t care about the cost, because we no longer have control of this.
I am not saying this is the way to take down the Taliban. I am saying it is a happy byproduct of this administration’s stupidity.
And if we cannot go in and get all the equipment back, which won’t happen, and we can’t destroy it now, because that won’t happen, the best case scenario is for them to destroy every single piece of equipment themselves, hopefully in wildly catastrophic circumstances for the largest numbers of Taliban injuries and fatalities.
Eight of them is less than I would like to see. I would hav rather seen it crash into one of their barracks and bring the whole thing down, but I don’t have any control of that.
“8 dead Taliban. A good start.”
Agreed. I love good news on a Tuesday morning.
More left rudder Abdul, more rudder...NOT your Mother
Those morons will ruin all the equiment that Bidet left.
That money is already gone.
I doubt anyone is using that calculus to determine if this is worthwhile or not.
This is already a loss and nothing will bring that money or equipment back, and the only redeeming aspects are how many of them will die trying to use it.
And the answer will be: Not Enough.
We can only hope............................😉
Sure we left a mountain of cool toys behind. But without skilled maintenance and operators, they are display only.
The Taliban flying it did real good, considering he could not read, write or count.
...a little harder to fly that mutha than you thought, Mohammed?
..maybe he didn’t do any training on LANDING except in the sim.
It ain't easy.
