The space is needed because the aircraft is a working office for the President when he is traveling.

AF1 carries the President, staff and media. It has a suite for the president, meeting rooms, work rooms, kitchen, etc. The communications gear is a small part of the space requirements.

Those are still not good arguments for a super-jumbo or even the 747.

A mid-size or a B-767 size plane are sufficient for what you described above.
