The United States has accepted a luxury Boeing 747 jetliner as a gift from Qatar and the Air Force has been asked to find a way to rapidly upgrade it for use as a new Air Force One to transport President Donald Trump,

The Boeing 747 Qatar donated to the Air Force One fleet costs roughly $400 million when new, but outfitting the jet to fit presidential requirements may cost up to $1 billion, according to experts. The Qataris have had trouble trying to sell the aircraft as 747s have fallen out of popularity within the aviation industry and are no longer manufactured.

The United States has officially accepted a controversial luxury jet from Qatar for use as Air Force One, according to the Pentagon, despite concerns from lawmakers and MAGA allies about the financial and ethical implications.
