That's right, Obama is the one who had a deal with with the Russians
to buy their helicopters for Afghan use.
Those will now be phased out and replaced with American machines.

Wait, Obama made a deal with the Russians? We need a special prosecutor!

The Mi-17 deal was stopped at least a year ago. We already started delivering 53 of the Black Hawks by the end of May. Another 100 or so on the way.
You really need to stop reading crap like the Washington Times.
ETA: delivery started on the 53, not delivered. Apparently refurbishment is needed first.

Reuters article from November 2016.
The Mi-17 deal was scrapped in 2013.

W.T.everlovin'F???
That decision would take a whole lot of explaining to me.

Good news for those of us that identify as attack helicopters!

From the article
quote:
The Pentagon’s first congressionally required report on Afghanistan under President Trump says the Russian Mi-17 chopper has proved a failure in the long war and will be phased out in favor of American-made UH-60 Black Hawks. The Obama administration came to realize the failure in its last weeks in office and stopped the deal.
SO.. the pentagon under Trump issued a report officially stating the deal was a failure, but the Obama admin had already realized it and stopped the deal? Does that sum it up?

Why the hell was there a deal in the first place that needed to be stopped?????
This is bullshite from the git-go.
Nothing really surprises me about how incompetent, and anti-American that fuktard was. Worst leader in American history.
I hope we have witnessed out last PC-worship POTUS. We dodged the 'glass ceiling' bullet in '16 and I hope the "AA" itch has been sufficiently scratched that the next time we concentrate on merit.

You should have probably read the article before posting this as it makes you look very silly.
