Newsweek: Pentagon Reveals Trump's Air Force One New Paint Job Will Be Red, White and Dark Blue
Part of the defense budget proposed by President Donald Trump Monday would include replacing Air Force One with a brand new Boeing 747-8. Procuring the new aircraft under the VC-25B Presidential Aircraft Recapitalization program would cost approximately $800.9 million.
With the proposed modernization of the aircraft comes a new paint scheme for Air Force One, replacing the design that has been in place the Kennedy administration in 1962. President John F. Kennedy himself help come up with the design of the plane in cooperation with industrial designer Raymond Loewy.
