'You Can't Tell Us Where... The Funding Is?': Jeanne Shaheen & Air Force Sec Spar Over Qatari Jet

Published | Video Starts at 00:30

I would like to follow up though on Senator Murphy's questions about the Qatari gift to use as Air Force One because it's been reported that The plane is not only going to have to be limited to domestic travel because of the security concerns about retrofitting, but also that it's going to require a fighter escort because it's going to lack the security capabilities that the Air Force One program has built into it. And you spoke to the additional cost to retrofit. So can you talk about what we are not going to do because we are going to be incurring those costs for retrofitting. (00:30–00:50)

CLAIM

Asserts that the Qatari gift plane will be limited to domestic travel and require a fighter escort due to security concerns.
