How they got Milan ATGM
I know they had Saggers and Konkurs Soviet ATGM

India produces MILAN ATGMs domestically under license. The Muj were given some, but id be surprised if they were of any use today and not expired.

I believe Milans were supplied to the Mujahideen possibly by MI6 during the 80s

Taliban Announces Deployment of Advanced Guided Anti-Tank & Helicopter Missiles

The Taliban’s Ministry of Defence has announced the activation of the Konkurs and Milan (9M135) guided missile system for the first time in Afghanistan.

Considering how few of these they have its complete waste using it on a border post, it isn't like in our case where we have so many ATGMs that soldiers can use them like candy at just about everything.

Any updates? I heard a small group of TTA surrendered to PA, and handed over their weapons.

Just rumors though, no evidence.

On a side note, my X account got locked for "violent speech", because some Noonie reported a comment pointing out PMLN's past appeasement to TTP as violent threats.

They could have gotten a few missiles from Iraqi or Syrian groups, I doubt they have more then a dozen missiles considering they only trained 13 guys to use the system

still though it would be something tank crews on the border need to watchout for these Milans will go right through the Type 59 and 69s on the border.

It makes wonder why they haven't purchased more stuff from the black market like Manpads.

Queue Atiq Khan ex VoA with his anti Pakistan propaganda. The twitter trolls will be out in full force today crying "Da Zara Tota May Ye".

Muh country, muh Afghanistaaaan, now I am in Landan. Bro if you miss Afghanistan so much F off back to Kabul and stop hiding in France and Landan.

But they will never do that because they know what's waiting for them when they land in the land of the morning bulbul.

Bhai - besides being with their own biases these characters are all coffee or pub buddies with the eastern neighbor consulate folks. Sab gol maal hai

You cannot insult the Plastic surgery princess and “Tikkay” nawaz even if they have been involved in the most nefarious of schemes and individuals to keep their thrones.

Btw guys Pakistan is now probably the largest operator of the T-80, Russians somehow burned through their entire stock of thousands of T-80s in Ukraine

Did the french or other users leave stockpiles?
Or did the Indians very likely supply the ANA and these are systems at the very edge of their lifespan

Men is meaningless to these people..you know what their opinion on men and life is?

" So what if 20 died, we marry four women and. Have 10 sons". - tribal commander back in 2008.

Not really the case in Balochistan.

Milan is a pretty common ATGM, Iraqis and Syrians had large stock of these many of which got into the hands of rebel groups, I wouldn't be surprised if a few of those got into the hands of the Taliban

Then the Iranian route was used to smuggle in - my focus was the route less the source of the Milan.

Must be new. ATGM have a limited shelf life and I doubt Taliban could maintain them.

Hoarding. PSO is still giving it.

Interestingly - Ive heard some gloats from the folks who could afford both solar panels and electric cars.

We are discussing Afghanistan and the tribal belt. Balochistan is an entirely different beast.
