One of the best-known aircraft of the current day is air force one, the name given to two boeing 747s designed to carry the us president. The call sign 'air force one' can in actual fact refer to any aircraft that has the president aboard, but the term is often used synonymously for this specific pair of planes. The first dedicated presidential aircraft was a c-54 skymaster, a long way from the two sophisticated boeing 747-200b aircraft that have been used in the usa since 1990. These customized aircraft are known as the boeing vc-25a, with all sorts of classified command and communication equipment installed inside. In a war scenario, the president could stay aloft and maintain secure communications with his forces and governmental apparatus. The two vc-25as are operated by the 89th airlift wing at andrews air force base in maryland
