The DOD has taken possession of Qatari gift

Communications specs do not come from AFOTEC

 

OK?

 

Park the plane next to the Trump Library and let visitors tour the plane that might have served as Air Force One

 

Kind of like the Reagan library

 

Wait, I thought it wasn't going to serve as AF1?

 

Didn't know that.

 

“I have to call a spade a spade. We cannot accept a $400 million “gift” from jihadists in suits.

This is really going to be such a stain on the admin if this is true. And I say that as someone who would take a bullet for Trump.”

Firm tapped to modify Qatar jet for Trump admin agrees to $62 million settlement in false claims case

• L3Harris Technologies will pay $62 million to settle allegations that it lied about the prices of equipment it sold to the U.S. military.
• The firm has been tapped to help turn a luxury 747 jet gifted to the U.S. from Qatar into President Donald Trump's new Air Force One.
• L3Harris said it is "pleased to have been able to amicably resolve the matter," noting the settlement came "without any admission of fault or liability."

 

So we got a plane and $62M…winning

 

Yikes we now even have Tucker Carlson saying this reeks of corruption

 

“We” get.

 

RINO!

 

A plane that would require hundreds of millions of dollars of modifications before it can be used for presidential transport. Qatar did win. The country was able to unload a white elephant that they couldn't sell on the open market and in the process are able to increase their influence over a president that they already owned. Another example of Trump cementing his place in history as the best U.S. President that money can buy and none of his predecessors come remotely close.

 

Can't wait for this disaster to manifest. Modifying that plane will require Boeing due to data rights on software that resides in the jet. Let's see how long L3 Harris and Boeing start slipping schedule with cost overuns and start suing each other.

 

Most corrupt president in our history. Nobody else is close. Sad day indeed.

 

A feature, not a bug in maga world

 

Software that resides in the jet? What software would this be and why would they have created it in the first place?

 

Surely a federal appropriations specialist such as yourself is familiar with propieratary software. Look at the next generation fighters. Allies dropping the 35 because Pentagon won't share source code
