President Donald Trump on June 19 unveiled the plane that will serve as the new Air Force One, a $400 million Boeing 747-8 luxury jet that was gifted to the United States by the Qatari government in 2025.
Trump stepped down from the plane inside a new hangar at Joint Base Andrews that was specially built for it, which is much larger than the previous jets that served as Air Force One, he said.
