They have helicopters, aircraft and a few drones. Theres a pic with at least 5 scan eagles, which cost $4M a piece.

You have to understand the ANA's defection was complete and utter. Entire pilots and crews just outright defected to the Taliban.

Also, the Taliban apparantly are sitting on $10B in cash, which should finance operations for a bit, especially if Iran, Pakistan or China were to provide a bit of maintenance.

That stuff requires constant neverending check-ups and upkeep. It will all break within a month or two, three at best. The ANA wasn't taught how to do any of that, US military made sure of that. That's why it's nothing but fearmongering crap.
