Comments: This aircraft must have had some kind of systems failure on landing as it rolled to the end of the runway and caught the arrestor cable. The aircraft on approach in the background had to overshoot the runway and landed eventually once the runway was cleared. These aircraft were operating in the UK as part of Exercise Deployed Titan.
