The president told military personnel they didn't have brand new aircraft three years ago, when Barack Obama was at the end of his term.
President Donald Trump wrongly told U.S. troops that they had an"all brand new" fleet of aircraft during a Christmas conference call, it has been reported.
Speaking to Air Force personnel during the Christmas video call, President Trump said:"I have to just ask you one question. We spent a lot of money on brand new airplanes, as you know. Three years ago you didn't have brand new airplanes, you were not doing well, and now you have all brand new. Are you seeing the big difference? They're already arriving."
"As of late 2018, the average age of an Air Force plane was 28 years -- 26 for fighters, 42 for bombers, 54 for tankers."
