U.S.A.F. T-3A Fireflies to be scrapped.

The USAF has decided to scrap its entire fleet of T-3A Fireflies. When in service, a series of accidents killed three Instructors, and three students.
Other than these unfortunate events, does anyone know why the USAF didn't like the Firefly, or did it fall victim to political wrangling, i.e buying-in foreign aircraft?
