Afghanistan

[Quintus Fabius]

Wie der IS in seiner Zeit als Quasi-Staat bauen die Taliban gerade mechanisierte Einheiten auf. Der primäre Grund ist der gleiche wie eh und je, dass man mechanisierte Einheiten nämlich dazu benötigt Stellungssysteme des Gegners zu durchbrechen und aufzuschlagen und dass Kampfpanzer gerade im Orts- und Häuserkampf eine herausragend gute Waffe und absolut notwendig sind.

Taliban Army Reinstates Armour Operations In Afghanistan

Images released in mid-November 2021 seems to suggests that the new Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan might turn to the large-scale use of armour once again. During an inspection tour of a military base near Kabul, Chief of Staff Qari Fasihuddin visited a unit that appears to make use of a T-62M, a T-55 and a BMP-2.

It is not unthinkable that the new Afghan Army under Taliban leadership will attempt to reactivate more of the heavy weaponry that currently is still languishing on bases throughout the country. This includes anything from tanks to 220mm BM-27 multiple rocket launchers and even ballistic missiles
