A new report reveals the Pentagon may be using funds from an over-budget missile program to renovate a 747 jet gifted to former President Trump by Qatar. While Trump claimed the plane was a 'free gift', a $934 million transfer from the Sentinel missile project to a classified project raises suspicions. The Air Force privately admits using Sentinel funds for renovations, though the exact cost remains classified. The plane, valued at $400 million, requires significant upgrades, including communication systems and anti-missile capabilities, before it can serve as Air Force One. Its current location is a facility in San Antonio, Texas, known for classified projects.
