Plenty more where that came from, courtesy of the US taxpayer.

Not really. The damn airframes are old as dirt. The maintenance is
difficult even with a top quality US crew. You’re never quite certain if
your bird is going to be airworthy at the appointed time. That terrible
story about the $2000 toilet seat came from the P3 fleet. I’m frankly
surprised after many 11+ hour no $#|+ flights. Do they ever get used?
