Kochi, July 22 -- A British F-35B fighter jet, grounded at Thiruvananthapuram International Airport in Kerala for over a month due to a suspected hydraulic failure, is set to return to the UK on Tuesday after successful repairs, an airport official aware of the matter said on Monday. "The fighter jet, after repairs, has been brought out of the hangar and is currently placed in the parking bay of the airport. It has been refueled. The jet will fly out of the airport on Tuesday," the official said. The advanced stealth jet, belonging to the Royal Navy and part of the HMS Prince of Wales Carrier Strike Group, was repaired by a 21-member expert team armed with specialist equipment that arrived from the UK at the Thiruvananthapuram airport on July 6. The airport official, who did not want to be named, said the expert team is likely to depart from Thiruvananthapuram on Tuesday or Wednesday in a special aircraft that will be flown in from the UK. The F-35B fighter jet had made an emergency landing on the night of June 14 at the Thiruvananthapuram airport after reporting low fuel and adverse weather conditions during a routine sortie. Upon landing, the fighter jet developed an engineering issue, precluding its return to the aircraft carrier, officials said. Engineers from the HMS Prince of Wales had inspected the aircraft and concluded that the support of a UK-based engineering team was needed. The fighter jet, loaded with several advanced military features, being stranded at the Kerala airport for over a month had sparked memes and jokes on social media....
