TVS News AI, editorially supervised, presents Lufthansa Sells 747 to U.S. Air Force: Two Jumbos Leave Germany.

Two used Boeing 747-8s have been bought by the USA from Lufthansa. Within just a few months, two wide-body jets from the airline's fleet are now leaving Germany bound for the U.S. military.

According to Focus Kultur, the first plane with the registration D-ABYD was already handed over to the U.S. Air Force in January. Now the second 747-8 with the registration D-ABYG has followed and has also been transferred to the United States.

What is known about the sale so far

The handover of the aircraft took place in two stages: first the D-ABYD in January, now the D-ABYG. Both sold 747-8s from the Lufthansa fleet are now in the United States — confirming what industry observers had already suspected during the first deal in January: the buyer is apparently the same one.

What remains open

What the U.S. Air Force specifically intends to use the two jumbo jets for, and at what price the sale went through, is not disclosed in the report. It also remains unclear how many 747-8s are currently still in Lufthansa's fleet.
