The VC-25, better known as Air Force One, is the official presidential plane. It is the 6th model in the line of presidential aircraft. On top of the role of the President's official aircraft, it is also a huge symbol of of the United States Government. The Air Force One program started in 1933, but this specific aircraft began service in1990, and is still used today. It has flown presidents, George H. W. Bush, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and currently, Barrack Obama.

At first glance, the VC-25 appears to be a regular Boeing 747, with a alternate paint job, but Air Force One was designed with many different safety features in mind. Features such as these include re-inforced plating at the bottom of the plane, to protect it from Nuclear Explosions erupting from the ground. It also contains flares and other tools to throw off the tracking of missiles. It is also resistant to Electro-magnetic pulses.

Notes about the build-

First off, there are some things I do realize about this build that would make it not 100% accurate. The first one that would probably be the most noticeable, is the fact that it is drastically out of proportion to the actual aircraft. This didn't really bother me that much, because I was trying to get the maximum amount of detail for the actual aircraft. The second detail some may notice is the fact that on the real airforce one, it has text along the side of the fuselage. I didn't worry about that, because any text that would be added would be too small and inaccurate to look good.

In all, this was a fun build, and I look forward to doing many other aircraft in the future.

Also, if you have an idea for an aircraft, feel free to comment. I do take suggestions!

Its a bit late, seeing as the pictures are already shot, besides, Air Force One is rarely escorted by fighter jets, though it was for a few days after 9/11.

Air force one does indeed infact have an armoury! its nota large one, just some backup weapons for the secret service onboard, a few sig's/glock's maybe a mp5k or two, as we aren't allowed much info on airforce one that's as much as I know! :-)
