Boeing is projected to deliver its new Air Force One presidential aircraft in 2027, three years behind the schedule negotiated during President Donald Trump’s first term, a top U.S. Air Force official said on Wednesday.
Darlene Costello, the air force’s acting acquisition chief, testified before the House Armed Services Committee that Boeing’s proposed 2027 delivery date would ultimately depend on whether the White House and the air force were willing to compromise on certain design and capability requirements.
