Well, they have been off before with budget problems. Maybe,its just

Not likely. Most of the so called 'Western' powers with older radar
setups had to by spare tubes from Russia. As far as I know, tube
production is still going well there.
There may be a lesson to be learned from that.

There are power tube rebuilders in Louisiana and in California. As the
tubes get bigger they are generally easier to renew. BTW: there are
industrial furnaces that use high power RF. Transmitting is not the
only use for these tubes.
