So, eventually ground troops will have to move against main forces.
The Taliban have no Ukraine style Javelins and the FSB might make sure with ANC that offering those in the usual African spots is a one way passing ticket straight into Hell.
That means, that the Humvee Pick-Ups with a mounted ex-Anti-Aircraft two barrel gun will be effective, but endangered by RPGs.
The T-52 and T-72 chassis are simple diesel engine using designes that every ship yard in Pakistan and India can produce using Tata Lorry engines. Pakistani gun shops must be able to produce a Sten-Gun design 30mm magazin or belt fed machine gun creating the "Hello" version of the Terminator tank made in India-Pakistan.
That thing needs a fine optic with IR and UV sight to use distance, aiming and is still saved from RPG and even .50cal fire having low tech reliability.
If Choppers, like that Turkey Apache one, do direct fire support Taliban captured US Army military gear is fucked, litterly...as in litter.
