“Trump Secretly Switched to Smaller Military Jet in Turkey Amid Reported Iranian Assassination Threat”U.S. President Donald Trump was secretly transferred from a decoy Air Force One aircraft to a smaller military jet during his departure from Turkey last month, in an elaborate security operation reportedly prompted by a credible Iranian threat against his life. According to the reports, Trump initially appeared to board the older Air Force One in full view of cameras and journalists. However, after boarding, he was reportedly moved through a catering truck positioned at another aircraft door and taken to a smaller Air Force C-32A military aircraft. At the time, Trump publicly said the newer aircraft would travel to Britain so U.S. military personnel could see it, while he returned using the older presidential aircraft. Earlier reporting by CBS News indicated that security officials had already taken precautions because of threats attributed to Iran and allied proxy groups.
