Weren’t there hundreds parked at Davis-Monthan? You might be able to make them airworthy again.

All were chopped up (under SALT 1 Treaty, I think)and left in 4-5 pieces, so the Russkies could verify their destruction via satellite.

Doubtful. There are still a few intact, but most were intentionally destroyed as part of the SALT treaties with Russia.
