The Economist: advanced military technologies did not save the US Armed Forces from defeat in Afghanistan

London, February 6. The United States spends huge amounts of money on the development of modern military technologies, but they did not save the American Armed Forces from defeat in Afghanistan.

Analysts of the British edition of The Economist published a material in which they named the reason for the failure of the US military campaign in Afghanistan. The Americans have relied on advanced military technologies, forgetting that effective intelligence, the ability to disguise and act covertly still remain at a great price during the war.

It is noted that the Pentagon has managed to develop technologies for network-centric wars, as well as for conducting combat operations in Earth orbit. Today, the American command can carry out electronic control of troops in the radar and infrared ranges, but these developments have proved useless in practice.

In Britain, they said that all these technologies did not help the United States in Afghanistan. The US military was forced to flee when the situation escalated to the limit. Technological sophistication did not save Washington from a shameful defeat.

Earlier, the Russian permanent mission to the UN called the US attempts to pass off its policy in Afghanistan as "success" hypocrisy. They noted that the actions of the White House led only to the consolidation of a negative status for the country.
