Boeing to deliver Air Force One by 2028

Boeing confirms that it will deliver the two "Air Force One" aircraft in 2028, despite costs rising from $3.9 billion at the time of the contract signing in 2018 to more than $5 billion, with the program delayed by four years beyond the original schedule. Testing of the two planes is expected to begin next year, and the company may need to increase spending to complete design work and necessary licensing. The new aircraft, based on the Boeing 747-8, will replace the two old presidential planes and will be equipped with advanced communication and defense systems, despite financial challenges and a demanding schedule.
