Afghanistan's 40+ years of conflict indeed left a vast stockpile of Soviet-era arms—millions of AK-47s, RPGs, and ammo—fueling instability regionally. US arms deals for M16s, M4s, M240s (and likely M249, not M247) aimed for standardization but faced corruption, overpricing, and logistics failures, with $7.8B in equipment left behind in 2021 per SIGAR. Sustainable security requires local sourcing over foreign dependency.
