Some hour drive from Kabul, a real massive scrapyard of the Afghan Army was found. Only a few sandy paths were cleared from land mines and other booby traps. I was able to drive around this pile of metal, but it was impossible to leave the sandy path. This photo shows an Antonov nose section, MiG-21s, a Mi-24/-35 part, but I couldn't reach these wreckages for a further inspection of types and construction numbers. What a mess...
