US Accepts Unconditional Donation of Luxury Qatari Jet
The Trump administration has accepted an unconditional donation of a luxury Boeing 747 jet from Qatar, intended to serve as President Donald Trump's new Air Force One. The memorandum of understanding, signed by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Qatari defense officials, emphasizes the gift is made in good faith and is not contingent on any official act. The Air Force plans to retrofit the aircraft with special security features and technology, with refurbishment costs estimated by some lawmakers to be as high as $1 billion, though Pentagon officials suggest it may be less. Funding for the retrofitting has been drawn from a restructured nuclear missile replacement program, raising concerns among lawmakers about the wise use of taxpayer dollars. After President Trump leaves office, ownership of the plane is intended to transfer to his presidential library foundation. This donation has sparked bipartisan criticism regarding the cost and appropriateness of accepting such a gift.
