Interesting that.

The Jaguar airframe and its wings were managed as different assemblies and were frequently changed over. The wing change, if I recall correctly, required four bolts and a shed load of other stuff to be disconnected and the wing could then be lifted off as a single piece.

If this aircraft was written off, one presumes there was other significant damage in addition to the loss of a chunk of wing.
