No, their value was ironically proven over in Iraq and Afghanistan. Local cultures made it so ony women could screen women among other things. So there's that for not further antagonizing local nationals.
That's just to say useful things were done. Not that they're a net positive.
Much talked up by regime media, not so much in practice. It was far more effective to simply isolate all the women together and drop a bubble gum mic with them. The effort of dragging females along on mission is never worth it.
Eavesdropping is very different from getting biometrics (fingerprints, retinal scans, and photos could be easily done at popup checkpoints), address, age, etc.
that could've been done by female civilian contractors, there's no need to have females signed up for the military for years just to chat with the local trash bags
That's where you use women from the general theater to act as screeners. Your allies basically. I realize that is a bit blurry in Afghanistan, but that's a problem of the war in general.

Still not worth the extra problems women bring.
bubble gum mic?

Hajis liked to kidnap the all-female units, very profitable for prisoner exchanges, more so than for captured male soldiers.
