He put in a basketball goal.
No, but you can damn well bet it’s got a mini-golf course. and if it’s 80’s tech it probably has RS-232 interface leads instead of USB ports.

Great, but does it have a putting green?
Obama has them fully stocked with Choom and nekkid boys.
(He plans to leave his beard family on the ground.)
I see it in the skies in Omaha very often. I believe during the Cold War one of the doomsday aircraft was airborne at all times.
Yeah, right.
Then he immediately talks about aerial refueling...
As to the nuclear bomb & asteroid blast..... (eye roll)
What sort of a thing could do all that?
After all, we can’t allow a doomsday gap!
This is news?
My geometry teacher in 1968 was the IO for Looking Glass out of Offut.
Old as dirt.
The eye of Sauron exiting a blue plasma wormhole?
Do you really not know what that is?
I worked on the E4B... Command and Control!
“The doomsday plane can reportedly withstand a nuclear bomb, asteroid blasts and terror attacks while staying airborne for days without refueling.
What sort of a thing could do all that?”
I think the writer is referring to radiation. Not the blast itself. It’s my guess that all of the electronic components are rad-hardened. The reason that a mil-spec gate costs $100 vs it’s 10 cent commercial counterpart. Lacking mil spec electronics in modern autos, the prepper crowd gets around this by keeping a pre 70’s vehicle on hand.
Our so-called leaders are the most cowardly people in history. Here’s hoping that after the world is on fire and they eventually land on some remote air strip with their food rations and cases of booze, that they are hacked to death and eaten by the natives.
Silly taxpayer. Barack Hussein Obama will be there. Reggie Love will be there. You? LOL infidel sucker.
OHHHNOESSS! A secret leaked again! </sarc>
These planes, all four, have been in service since Nixon. When I was a young aspiring Marine Corps Sergeant (aka Private) they were known as NEACP...Kneecap. Boeing built a maintenance hanger at Shreveport Regional Airport to service the birds...and AF1. SHV is close to Barksdale AFB. SHV is where my Mooney once lived.....said through teared eyes....
that was probably bad story editing.
being hardened to radiation, it can withstand a blast from a nuclear bomb, but depending on the size of the bomb, the shock wave, and the atmospheric winds outwards AND backwards, it has to be a certain distance away in order not to be knocked out of the sky.
i think they did a really crap editing job on that point.
