UK experts inspect fighter jet stuck in India for three weeks
UK experts have been called in to inspect a Royal Air Force (RAF) fighter jet that has been stuck in India for the past three weeks. The incident took place at the Kalaikunda Air Force Station in West Bengal, where the UK’s Typhoon fighter jet was on a training exercise.
According to Indian officials, the aircraft encountered a technical issue during the exercise and was forced to make an emergency landing at the base. Despite initial attempts to fix the problem, the jet has remained grounded for three weeks, prompting the Indian Air Force to seek assistance from the UK.
A team of experts from the UK arrived at the airbase to assess the situation and determine the best course of action to recover the fighter jet. The UK Ministry of Defence confirmed the dispatch of the team and expressed their commitment to resolving the issue swiftly.
Indian authorities have assured that they are providing full cooperation to the UK experts to facilitate the inspection and any potential repairs that may be required. The goal is to get the fighter jet back in operational condition and return it to the UK at the earliest opportunity.
The exact nature of the technical problem faced by the Typhoon fighter jet has not been disclosed, but both the Indian and UK officials are working closely to address the situation and ensure the safe return of the aircraft.
This collaboration between the two countries highlights the importance of international cooperation in dealing with such incidents involving military equipment.
