Tell me more about how maintenance of airframes can not be done due to lack of funding. Follow the money.

“The service said it had bought almost 400 cups for that price.

In July, the Air Force said that the 60th Aerial Port Squadron purchased 10 hot cups for $6,930 in 2016. The price for each cup surged from $693 to $1,280 in 2018, resulting in a cost of $32,000 for 25 cups -- a price jump of $587 per cup.

Part of the issue, officials said, was that replacement parts for the cup handle are no longer available. Each time a handle breaks, the Air Force had to order a new cup. So instead, the squadron was working with innovators to create a 3D prototype for a new handle to replace the flimsy, existing version.”
