RAF's first F-35 stealth jets touch down in Britain to resurrect 617 'Dambusters' Squadron

Lightning roars through the rainbow: Two years late, the RAF's first £100m F-35 stealth jets touch down in Britain to resurrect 617 'Dambusters' Squadron

• The Ministry of Defence has bought eight of the F-35B Lightning jets
• They will be taking off from the Royal Navy's two new aircraft carriers
• Britain has said it plans to have 48 by 2023 and eventually a fleet of 138
• But EACH plane costs £100million and if sterling weakens price will go up
• The 617 'Dambusters' Squadron has been re-formed to fly the F-35Bs
• They are the first vertical take-off planes since the Harriers were scrapped
• Original plan was for jets to land on carriers with 'catapults and traps'

The RAF's state-of-the art new fighter jet touched down in the UK for the first time tonight.

The world’s most advanced stealth aircraft landed at RAF Fairford, Gloucestershire, after flying from the US with a Briton at the controls.

Its arrival came two years after it pulled out of air shows because of an engine fire.
