Why have these and the rest of the Afghan Air Force aircraft not been torched? Even if they are rendered 'unflyable' they've presented the Taliban with a vast amount of valuable spares and parts to swamp the world markets with, quite apart from the propaganda points they score by parading this vastly. And if the vast stores of spares remain intact what's to stop Iran od otheres offering support to fix them up again?
