As it's a T1 I wouldn't be at all surprised if they just turn it into spares.

I watched an A-6 take the barrier on CVN-65, didn't look bad until one got close to the Intruder to see every probe on the forward fuselage ripped off from the straps, it didn't fly again until the end of cruise.

I am sure that they can fix it but as they are progressing from the T1 to the T2 I am thinking that they may not bother. Likely to be cheaper to cannibalize it.
