Nah, just attack the transformers. All large transformers worldwide are on a multi-year backlog, and almost all of them are made overseas. Many in countries that aren’t so friendly right now.

If you get a large transformer that didn’t make you wait multiple years, then you stole it, or bought it out from underneath someone else. Or, it was damaged somehow and has supposedly been rebuilt perhaps with questionable materials and reliability.

And transformers are surprisingly easy to damage.
