I thought this was far fetched. But apparently long ranged B-29 bombers operated from India against Japanese strongholds in South East Asia.One of the "Super Fortress" bombers crashed near Mersing. Possibly near Aur.

Its serial number was 42-65226 - crashed in 11th January 1945.

Apparently a group of divers discovered the wreck in the late 1990s.
