NEW DELHI:
A technical snag in a
US Air Force C-17 Globemaster III
aircraft was quickly and jointly resolved by India and the US Air Forces at the Jaipur airbase on Saturday.
According to a post on X, an IAF maintenance team worked with US Air Force personnel to fix the issue. The swift response and deployment of essential equipment underlined the strong logistical coordination between the two forces, it said.
While the detailed information about the fault has not yet been released, Boeing's website describes the C-17 Globemaster III as a large
military transport aircraft
with four engines, high wings, and a T-shaped tail. It is used by defence forces to carry heavy equipment, supplies, and troops. The aircraft can land on small runways in rough and remote areas.

The incident has brought attention to the smooth collaboration between the Indian and American air forces. Their growing partnership is part of a broader effort to ensure readiness and mutual support, particularly in the Indo-Pacific region. Over the years, both air forces have engaged in joint exercises such as Yudh Abhyas, Vajra Prahar, and Tiger Triumph, shared best practices, and explored avenues for technological cooperation.
