Oh possibly. Not sure the government has even signed those contracts yet at this point.
The one surprising thing is that the Qatari jet is actually a 747-8 model like the two new contracted planes. So I suppose it could technically be outfitted as a new Air Force One, then only one of the new airframes finished and outfitted, and then gut this to finish the second new airframe, leaving a gutted 747-8 for Trump.
But we know that's not what will happen.
It will cost more to strip it, verify parts, retrofit and rebuild it and sweep the thing for malicious items/bugs and/or bombs.
Israel is making indiscernible beeper bombs and this retard accepted a 485,000lb potential bomb.
