Modi strutted around like a cock in the company of QUAD leaders. India has made it to the white men's club. They must have trusted India to be one of them. Then Britain flew in a F35 to Chennai to let Modi take a photo op in the pilot's seat. If only the Brits trusted the Indians.
No way. The Brits did not trust the Indians a wee bit, despite India being a core member of the QUAD. Oops, the Brits were not in the QUAD. This must be the reason. The trouble ridden F35 had to make an emergency landing in Chennai, India and unable to return to its mothership, the Brit's aircraft carrier, Prince of Wales that were passing by.
The Indians tried to help by offering to move the aircraft from the open tarmac into a hangar. The Brits refused the offer, fearing that inside the hangar when the Brits cannot keep an eye on it, the Indians could mess around with the aircraft. The Brits want the aircraft to be on the tarmac, despite exposing to weather, but not inside the hanger in the hands of the Indians. They are afraid that the Indians would steal the secrets of the F35 once out of their sight.
This must be a big slap on Modi. The Indians probably would like to have a closeup view of the aircraft that they wanted to buy and promised by Trump in a deal. Unfortunately, they could not get near to the aircraft. Did the Americans have anything to do with the Brit's decision to park the aircraft in the open under the close watch of the Brit's pilots and crew flown in?
Whatever confidence and high hopes that the Indians think they have in becoming an ally of the Americans and the West turned into smokes. After 3 weeks in Chennai, the F35 is either going to be cut up and packed into a big transport aircraft to be sent back, or latest, might have been repaired and able to fly back on its own. No Indian can get close to it.
This is a rude awakening to Modi and the Indians. The white men have ungracefully told Modi and the Indians that they are not one of them, cannot be trusted even to take care of an aircraft. The only good thing coming out from this is that India can boast about having a F35 on its soil. Singapore had bought more than a dozen, fully paid, but still got no chance to even have a look at the aircraft in the city state. This may not happen at all in the lifetime of many Singaporeans.
Would India still want to be a member of QUAD? Or would Modi be sobbing in the arms of Trump, complaining about the Brits? How real was Trump's offer to sell the F35 to India?

Hi Anon 10.22
The Sinkeland's F Jets are as arranged and paid for storage in the UAss for One Big Reason-
I.e To avoid been bombed and destroy completely by an enemy bombings.
Too small an Island to hide and parked at our Tamacs.
Also many at Fremantle Aussies Land as then can just fly over in any Emergency and Wars.
Also that stretch of the East Coast Runway takeaway all.the flowers display and make into runways for takeoff.
Apology should be Perth
Cheers
