2. Here are a few articles on that:

and
http://www2.chinadaily.com.cn/english/doc/2005-02/25/content_419345.htm

According to the first one, those stinger missiles are no longer as effective now as they were then. (At that time, they were DEADLY during take off & landing). But they are still nothing to laugh at, and there are plenty still out there. Those ( our) Gallant Fredom Fighters LAUGHED, when the CIA tried to buy them back.
