They had artillery. They showcased several arty pieces (122mm?). Tanks they dont have any. Only MRAPS and armoured transports. No tanks.

They had everything. They didn't deploy their artillery thinking that American/NATO airpower would destroy the Taliban for them as they have done for the last 20 years.

I thought those belonged to non regulars such as the anti taliban militias.

ANA has no expertise in maintaining advanced equipment

US gave the Blackhawks but really the only chopper ANA could maintain was the Mi-17

this is why US bought so many refurbished ones for ANA

I mean ANA was a paid force
