Qatari-donated Air Force One Receives New Paint Job Amidst Delays

The Qatari Boeing 747-8i aircraft, gifted to the United States to serve as an interim Air Force One, has been repainted in red, white, and blue. This aircraft, referred to as the VC-25B Bridge, is undergoing final government modifications. The gift from Qatar was made in May 2025 after President Trump expressed dissatisfaction with Boeing's delays in delivering two new VC-25B aircraft.

The Air Force has completed flight testing and plans a summer delivery to the Presidential Airlift Group, though the exact date for the president to begin using the aircraft remains unspecified.
