Not a spy plane, not $270M. The replacement for this could run around a billion.
It’s an airborne radar for coordinating combat flight operations and the 270 number is the unit cost from the 90s without adjustment for inflation.
Hmmm, a billion you say? Maybe the people of the United States need to assert ownership of the “gift” plane Trump got from his contacts in Qatar after this disaster of an administration has run its corrupt course. Also Bedminster, Trump Tower and a host of other properties that could be leveraged to pay back the theft he’s engaged in…

Get some Flex Seal, attach that back part to the front part and add in a slap of, “that should hold”. She’ll be flying again in no time.
