President Donald Trump on Wednesday announced that he was sending the new Air Force One to the United Kingdom for U.S. troops to tour.

"To honor our brave men and women of the Military, we are sending the brand new, and truly spectacular, Air Force One to Mildenhall Air Force Base, in the United Kingdom, to give them a chance to tour the Aircraft," he posted on Truth Social. "Everybody is so excited, and we thought that they should be the first."

"For old time’s sake, we’ll be taking the former Air Force One, from Turkey to Mildenhall, a short trip that is totally worth doing in order to give our Great Military Heroes a chance to appreciate our beautiful new addition to the Air Force Fleet!" he added.

The new vehicle is a Boeing jet gifted to the U.S. by Qatar. It currently serves as an interim Air Force One while Boeing continues development on a different design.

Trump's receipt of the plane has raised ethics concerns around the receipt of foreign gifts.
