Looks like the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing.

"Last year, many U.S. Navy aircraft sat grounded and waited for replacement parts to return them to airworthy status once again, unaware that the critical spare parts were already in their possession.

Thomas Modly, the Under Secretary of the Navy, revealed at a Military news conference last week that the Navy had failed to account for around $126 million in spare parts that could have begun critical aircraft maintenance, Military.com reported.

 

“Not only did we not know that the parts existed, we didn’t even know the warehouse existed,” said Moldy during the annual meeting of the Military Reporters and Editors conference at Navy League headquarters in Arlington, Virginia."
