Finally, a sensible decision.

Hope they keep flying them until about 2050+, or until a better replacement is found, with its same, or better durability, attack effectiveness, and low cost to procure.

Or will the fighter jocks try to get rid of it as soon as there is a new administration?

At least it will be flying for the next year or so
