President Donald Trumps preferred paint colors will be applied to the new planes which will serve as Air Force One, an Air Force official tells CNN.
The new heavily modified Boeing 747s, which the military designates VC-25B, will be painted red, white, gold and dark blue, a color scheme proposed during Trumps first term in office but reversed by the Biden administration.
Air Force One is going to be incredible, Trump said in 2018. Its going to be the top of the line, the top in the world. And its going to be red, white and blue, which I think is appropriate.
The planes which serve as Air Force One have been painted a baby blue and white livery since the Kennedy administration, and Trumps proposed change sparked speculation that he intended to replicate the colors of his personal Boeing 757.
