USAF’s E-3C/G fleet is managing a very similar serviceability rate as the RAF jets. They have not been fully invested in at all in terms of the airframe.
There’s absolutely no point installing block 40/45 if you’re not going to do something about extending the life of the airframe. Bad times at Tinker.
