Sorry -- I neglected to point out that the total of over $1.3 TRILLION is over 60% higher than the $88 billion we are being told by the right side media. This does not include ammunition, ordinance, artillery, uniforms, general supplies, bricks-and-mortar facilities that WE paid for, or all of the private assets which were presumably also lost in this Mother Of All Debacles.
EVERY moron who VOTED for this mind-numbingly STUPID MORON playing president, and EVERY TRAITOR who contributed in ANY way to the bumbling and bungled attempt at stealing the presidency IS complicit. This price tag is on ALL of their heads, and the losses are a direct debt by them to WE THE PEOPLE.
Well frens, taking to heart General Flynn's admonition that we either actively combat the DS/GloboLeft insanity or accept complicity, I was compelled to do the math on this epic, historic and colossally-monumental BLUNDER by Braindead Joe -- at OUR expense. In my first major attempt at autism, I have cited sauce for each quantity and/or unit cost, and in a few cases have adjusted for 3% Cost of Living (COL) for older citations.
ALL of this equipment belongs to WE THE PEOPLE -- well, we taxpayers, anyway. On behalf of us all, I DEMAND THAT IT BE REPATRIATED, IMMEDIATELY!
President Trump, I implore you and General Flynn to GO and GET it. If I may be on any service to that end, please do not hesitate to call upon me!
Unreal! Now Numbnuts has three carriers off of China??? OOPS - guess we'll head home and leave the equipment there! Geez . . . Come ON, President Trump - we can't stand any more of this!
Wow. Insanity is rampant! But then, knowing that we were called by the Lord Himself to bear witness to these things makes it all bearable. I am confident that ours is the generation that will witness the Lord's return. In fact, I don't see a single sign that does NOT point in that direction!
This is fine work, and thanks for posting. I seem to recall DJT mentioning a figure of over $2 trillion for the war in years past, but I do not remember what all he was including in his figures. His numbers may have included Iraq+Afg, or some other figures.
I don't think that Joe or anybody else realizes it yet, but he is now expendable to his bosses. He has done the job they wanted. They can now drop him like a used rag. I'm sure that if they could get some more out of him, they would be glad to take it, but he has gifted them Afghanistan so they can now form the big, three-continent empire, and the US has no footing to stop it. If we reverse the election and remove Joe, they don't care what we do to him. He has served his purpose.
SIGAR 20-44 Audit Report
Afghan National Army: DOD Did Not Conduct Required Oversight or Assess the Performance and Sustainability of the $174 Million ScanEagle Unmanned Aerial System Program
FlightSafety Services Corp., Centennial, Colo., was awarded a $78,369,818 fixed-price-incentive-firm and firm-fixed-price contract for engineering, manufacturing and development of the KC-46 aircrew training system, including delivery of courseware and simulator-based training systems.
Sorry to nit pick, and totally agree that this was a planned disaster to arm the Taliban at the expense of lives (American and Christian). But the books seem cooked.
Specifically the MIL intelligence equipment is valued as $78M each and 16k were left behind?? That's 1.2T just by itself.
The list I originally came across talked about a significant amount of secure radios. If these are manpack class 10k, not 78M would be a better figure for there value.That would bring the total value for that line item down to 160M not 1.2T.
Can someone supply the make model and cost of the MIL Intel Hardware to justify the 1.2T that this adds to the bottom line.
Also if these were direction finding (as an example) then almost every 500k Humvee was configured with a 78M DF system??
Things are just not adding up correctly, and to me this reeks of misinformation. It's so juicy everybody will want to run with it, discrediting many in the process.
THANKS
Feel free to do your own research. As I said, some of these were guesses as the items were not further defined in any sources that I could find. Misinformation? No. Clearly- qualified guesses where necessary with sources identified? Yes.
Not trying to be a butt head, but this still doesn't ring true and unfortunately some here are going to run with this and potentially embarrass themselves and this board.
Willing to do some digging, if you can identify which of the many sources was used to generate the quantity (16k) and cost (78M) for the one line item that is almost 95% of the total cost rollup.
Note that if that line item is taken out, then the total $$ falls in line with the 88B reported in other sources.
Please help identify the source for this line item, for without that information this is unusable outside of this forum.
P.S. Have worked on the development of many MIL systems and this does not add up!
Understood, and your insight is appreciated fren. If you look at he comments below my post, you'll see that CoolAsACucumber posted all of the sources which I cited.
I'd feel better knowing that he number is in line, that's for sure. As I said in the post, I was guessing a the cost of line items. The $78M was for KC-46's. That was all I could find under "Military Intelligence Equipment." Ph -- I pulled up the link:
The KC-46 is the latest aerial refueling tanker for the US (179) and a small number was sold to India (6), Indonesia (in discussions) and Japan (4 to 6).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_KC-46_Pegasus
On 24 February 2011, the USAF announced the selection of Boeing's KC-767 tanker bid. The aircraft (A/C) was designated KC-46A. Boeing was also awarded a development contract for the tanker. The contract calls for Boeing to complete and deliver 18 initial operational KC-46 tankers by 2017. The Air Force is seeking to receive a total of 179 new tankers.
In March 2015, the program cost for development and procurement of 179 tankers was projected to total US$43.16 billion.
The cost per copy for the A/C sold to Japan was $173M each.
The link
https://www.defense-aerospace.com/articles-view/release/3/144693/usaf-orders-%2478m-trainer-for-kc_46.html
was a 78M contract for the development of a ground based aircrew training system for the KC-46. Those are one off systems hosted at facilities that the A/C are based at. The actual cost per copy after development is much less and probably a reasonably estimate is that 5 copies at 10-20M each are here in the states and one copy delivered as part of the FMS KC-46 sale to India, Indonesia, and Japan
Bottom line, Afghan was never allowed to buy KC-46 through FMS (Foreign Military Sales) and most assuredly none were left behind (as was other deliberate leave behinds). The 16k were probably radios like SINCGARS or EPLRS, which
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SINCGARShttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_Position_Location_Reporting_System
with most (if not all) being SINCGARS variants (hopefully not with the US crypto installed). If so 10k per copy is a generous allocation for each unit so that line item comes down from 1.2T to 160M
Hope that help!
It sure does -- I was hoping for help from seasoned autists! Will modify the graphic.
Not that it would affect the bottom line much, but the "weapons" category seems and surely is low. There's no way of knowing what all is included, but I'm sure there are big guns and rocket launchers, among a host of other possibilities. The M-16 unit cost seems VERY low for a federally-procured item, as I just picked up and AR-15 for about he same price, used.
It's pretty much a dead-horse issue now, and again this was based on some guesses and assumptions, but i thought it good to check the reports to see if they were close. Sounds like they are.

um ... not to be a mathfag, but $88B is way less than 60% of $1.3T. More like 6.8%
Try 14.7 TIMES 88Billion or 1475%. Divided the 88B into 1.3T (or 1300B).
You can either say:
No matter how you state it ... it's TREASON.
We have the best math fags.
Don’t ever apologize, simply adjust your pocket protector and glasses, proudly.
Thanks pede. As I said - MORE than 60%, but I didn't calculate that out. Thanks for doing the math on that aspect.
It was late and I didn't break out the calculator. Obviously missed a decimal point. Thanks pede - will edit my post.
not to worry Fren! I actually made two errors myself and had to go back and edit MY comment and triple check it again .... KEK!
Kek. WWG1WGA - all on the same team!
I know that autocorrect disagrees, but the word is ordnance.
Thank you.

Spot on.
Well since you posted it on Imgur, which is just backwater Reddit, I'll be surprised if it lasts three days
Don't normally make those public, but for this one I did. Where do you go to upload memes?
Great - thank you! See comments for a post by CoolAsaCucumber. They posted each link in my meme. I'll go play in the cat box now. Kek

Thank you fren. Such a terrible loss for us!
WTH is "Military Intelligence Equipment" with 1,600 units at a unit cost of $78k? That's like 98% of everything.
Had to guess at that one. Check sauce for all - that's why it's there.
And this is how the people become poor & the DS criminals become more rich…. Throw joe under the bus & our republic becomes communist.
I don't think that Joe or anybody else realizes it yet, but he is now expendable to his bosses. He has done the job they wanted. They can now drop him like a used rag.

Yep. And just say "oops" and walk away from all of this huge fortune of a cache.
