I was wondering the same thing myself. It turns out, Secretary Rumsfield addressed this in yesterday's Defense Department Briefing. I don't remember the quote exactly, but he said we had a very limited supply of them, and we use them very judiciously.

I would say that the adolescent that inhabited the Oval Office for the 8 years before President Bush might be the reason why we don't have a huge warehouse full of them. They are relatively inexpensive at ~$27,000 apiece.

I'd bet they're in full production now...

They don't look like they take long to make.
