The spokesperson did not say which news outlet Kendall talked to or what secret information he shared.

This decision happened a few days after a report compared the new Air Force One plane with the old ones. Kendall was quoted in the report.

The report said the new plane lacks some features of the old planes, like refueling in the air and protection from a nuclear blast.

The Air Force secretary said he saw nothing more disturbing than a move by China in his 50-year career.

Kendall also talked about the plane in other recent reports. He said it would take three to four years to add all the necessary defensive features to the new plane.

Kendall was the Air Force secretary under former President Joe Biden from 2021 to 2025. He also worked in the Pentagon during the Obama administration.
