A British F-35B stealth fighter jet, one of the world's most advanced and expensive military aircraft, was stranded at Thiruvananthapuram International Airport in Kerala, India, for over five weeks due to a hydraulic failure following an emergency landing. The jet's extended stay sparked a wave of memes and jokes online, as well as curiosity and attention from locals and international observers. UK engineers were flown in to repair the aircraft, and after extensive maintenance and safety checks, the jet finally departed for Australia, resuming its mission. The incident highlighted the logistical and diplomatic challenges of deploying cutting-edge 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.
