A British F-35B stealth fighter jet, valued at over $100 million, was stranded at Kerala's Thiruvananthapuram International Airport for more than five weeks after making an emergency landing due to technical issues.
The jet's extended stay sparked a wave of memes and social media attention, turning it into an unlikely internet sensation. UK engineers were flown in to repair a hydraulic fault, and the jet has now successfully departed for Australia. The incident highlighted the logistical and diplomatic challenges of deploying advanced military technology abroad, as well as the unexpected costs, such as airport parking fees.
Both UK and Indian authorities expressed gratitude for the cooperation during the repair and recovery process.
