US Air Force One must remain with Boeing

The U.S. cannot switch to Airbus for the new Air Force One due to legal restrictions and deep-seated defense partnerships with Boeing. Air Force One is a classified command center requiring sensitive military system access, which U.S. law restricts for foreign companies like Airbus. Boeing, a domestic firm, already possesses this infrastructure and decades of experience. The U.S. military's long-standing reliance on Boeing for aircraft, coupled with nationalistic political considerations, ensures Boeing remains the sole viable option despite current program challenges.
