Afghan opportunities for the IRGC


American armed forces are building FOB's , in remote places of Afghanisthan which were previously unchallenged by them, in these Isolated remote outposts manned at the most at a Platoon level there is always a danger that they could be Outflanked and Overrun in a Massive Taliban Assault before Air -support could be provided or if it couldnt be provided . These bases contain many sensitive and high-tech equipment like the Advanced Scout Surveillance System (LRAS3) in remote places like the Korangal and Pech valley, these systems are much sought after by the Iranians and Chinese, the Iranians may conduct a Operation to get hold of the equipment, which they can Reverse engineer and Refine and adopt in to their own weapon systems. For example the LRAS3 could be integrated in to Iranian T-72's to provide better sighting and ranging. Or they could sell it to the Chinese.
