    USAF VC-25B "Air Force One" [Salty] - Image 1

    Description

    The first of two upcomming VC-25Bs "SAM 30000" is built on the 747-8 airframe. As of early 2023 it is expected to be delivered in 2027 with the second aircraft in 2028. 

    On March 10th 2023, Images were released of the selected livery for the VC-25B aircraft. It closely resembles that of the VC-25As but with a few differences. The engines now use the darker blue from the cockpit area, the light blue on the lower forward fuselage has been changed to a darker more modern tone and the polished metal has been removed and painted grey as modern martierals do not allow for the polished look. Additionally the dark blue does not extend as far back on the upper deck. 

    In a addition to the livery I have added many of the antennas on the upper portion of the aircraft that were visible in the newly released images. There will likely be even more on the aircraft along with countermeasure systems. I will do my best to add those when more renders or images of the real aircraft are released. 

    Known issues: 
    1: Windows do not behave the way the default models do. 
    2: Some users may experience performance issues.

    This is the VC25B which is based on the 747-8i.
    You're think of a VC25A with the shorter hump.

    Looks stunning. In my opinion, this seems to be the best looking VC-25B livery so far. A suggestion I would make would be to slightly lower the height of the “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” font to make it look more accurate.

    Another excellent repaint, congrats.

    Could you tell me how to remove the smoke from the front landing gear on some 747-8 paintings?

    And I would love to see the Lufthansa painting done by you.
