What do you get when you mix DEA with the DOD?
An $86m plane that has never flown.

You have to admire the B.S. that these guys cook up. Looks like the DOD took the DEA guys to the cleaners. Wonder how many of the contracts went to companies with former top brass on their boards?

Small change when compared to an incompetent White House squatter that spent $500,000,000 of the taxpayers money on a failed solar plant.

I've seen the DEA in Asia, not too effective..........

This has been a running bitch since they started that fiasco. Typical of our agency of trying to act like the big boys with a Cub Scout mindset and budget.

My air wing buddy's have been fuming as this has taken needed funds for maint, upgrading, etc for our planes....

The DEA should gut the plane and start the DEA "Opium Knights" jump/demonstration team!

Then they could waste millions and millions just like the United States Army!
