"The E-8C is a phenomenal bit of wizardry right up until they put it on used 707s with JT8Ds."

i have to admit i'm confused that in the grand scheme of the USAF's budget they've not not found the cash to fit them with CFM's if there is one thing you'd want the extra endurance/height on it'd be that?
