AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE,
A British Royal Air Force Eurofighter crashed on landing in eastern England when its front wheel failed to descend properly, the Ministry of Defence in London said Jan. 17.
The Typhoon jet suffered damage following a malfunction of its landing gear as it touched down at the RAF Coningsby station in Lincolnshire, eastern England, on Jan. 16, an MoD spokesman told Agence France-Presse.
No one was hurt and an investigation is now under way into what caused the problem, he added.
The Typhoon Eurofighter is produced by a consortium of EADS, BAE Systems and Italy
