What is AMARG?
and what implications does it have? Greater number if aircraft available?

Has tons of mothballed airframes that technically serve as a strategic reserve in the event that we suddenly need a few hundred more military aircraft for some reason.
I’ve seem what happens to shit that sits for a while. It breaks in ways beyond comprehension.
I have, too. Maybe I’m still in denial over this dark magic, but I still think just about anything can be successfully stored, using proper tested procedures. Regarding fluids, fuel, batteries, tires, etc. Can’t imagine how complicated it is for a million dollar fighter jet, though. But they’re probably built tough, and not full of cheap materials that disintegrate (unlike my old car).
I had to look it up as well “The 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group (309 AMARG) is a one-of-a-kind specialized facility within the Air Force Materiel Command structure.“
Dunno if it the only one or not
