May 22, 2025 Article
The United States has accepted a luxury Boeing 747 jetliner from Qatar, with the Pentagon confirming it may be used as a new Air Force One to transport President Donald Trump. The Air Force has been tasked with swiftly upgrading the aircraft to meet presidential standards, including security and communication systems. Originally built for VIP travel, the jet requires extensive modifications before official use. The gesture is seen as a symbol of strong U.S.-Qatar ties. Officials say the move could accelerate the replacement of the aging Air Force One fleet. No official timeline has been announced yet.
