UK’s F-35 Fighter Jet Stuck in India: Internet Explodes with Memes, OLX Jokes, and Stealth Code Buzz

New Delhi | June 21, 2025 — A British Royal Air Force F-35B Lightning II stealth fighter jet has been grounded at the Indian Air Force’s Jamnagar airbase for six days, triggering a wave of curiosity, speculation, and viral internet humour.

The fifth-generation stealth jet, known for its cutting-edge technology and combat capabilities, reportedly suffered a technical snag while en route from the UK to Australia for a military exercise. The jet made an emergency landing in Gujarat, and since then, engineers have been working on resolving the issue.

‘Stealth Code’ and Spy Theories Flood X (formerly Twitter)

Soon after news broke, speculation swirled on social media about whether the jet’s proprietary stealth software or sensitive defense systems had caused the delay. Hashtags like #StealthCode, #F35InIndia, and #JetStuck began trending.

Many users joked that Indian engineers might crack the F-35's code, with tweets like:

> “India now has 6 days to reverse-engineer the most advanced fighter jet on Earth.”



OLX Jokes and Meme Fest

As always, Indian internet users didn't miss the chance to turn the incident into a meme fest. One viral joke showed the F-35 listed on OLX with the caption:
“Hardly used, imported from UK, slightly damaged, price negotiable.”

Popular memes featured Indian PM Narendra Modi calling UK’s new PM Keir Starmer, saying:

> “Your jet is here. Come take it... or we’ll make it Indian.”



Defence Response and Official Statement

Indian Air Force sources confirmed that the UK had sent a team of technicians to fix the issue. “It’s a technical fault, not a geopolitical matter,” said one defense official.

The F-35B is one of the world’s most advanced multirole fighter jets, used by NATO and allied nations. Despite the humour online, both nations have treated the situation professionally and are coordinating to resolve the issue swiftly.
