How are the figures in the public records being inflated?
Gateway Pundit is a National Enquirer site.
This is why I say the numbers are inflated. You are using figures for all the equipment not what was left behind. Some of these numbers are for ammunition from 2004 - 2016.
Its G00D they didnt get what they thought they were getting!!
Actually, I believe there were some kind of deal between US troops on the ground and Taliban. ANyway, not all are US-owned equipment, so US troops have no right to "disable" them. In fact, that is another dumb move by Biden admin. Why upset Taliban when you need them to do you a favour?

You don't think the Chinese, who seem to be pals of the Taliban, or Russians know how to "maintain and service all that stuff"?

I just don't believe it!
Well believe it. Lot of simple folks who need to think before speaking out.
Tons and tons of equipment. But if the engine is missing a few parts or sand in the oil...its just tons and tons of metal.
Oh noooooooooooo. Our new allies are upset. Biden's new besties not too happy. lol We need to get Traitor Joey a goat and send him off to be with his new friends in Afghanistan. They'll have a great time. Old Joe is due for a fun vacation.

73 out of how many planes total ?
Those 73 are a drop in the bucket to the hundreds of planes we left there.
Those 73 could end up being spare parts for the ones that are working.
Over 200 planes per GAO report and some here think those 73 were all of them.
