A New York Times report revealed that the new US presidential plane, a modernized Boeing 747 gifted by Qatar, lacks some of the defensive systems found in the previous presidential plane, including capabilities to intercept thermal missiles.
It was reported that the new American presidential plane, “Air Force One”, a Boeing 747 that Qatar gifted to President Donald Trump and entered service after comprehensive modernization work, lacks some of the defensive measures present in the previous presidential plane.
The New York Times, citing American officials, said that the modernized Boeing 747 gifted by Qatar differs from the previous presidential plane, as officials claimed that the new plane does not possess some of the defensive capabilities found in the previous model, Including missile defense systems.
Two former US military officials said that the speed of implementation of the project did not allow enough time to make all the security modifications that are traditionally associated with a fully equipped presidential aircraft.
According to the report, the former Air Force One aircraft contained a defensive system designed to disable thermally guided missiles, and various parts of these defensive systems are visible under the wing of the old plane and at the rear of it.
