Product Description
[About CH-47JA]
—— Following the custom of naming the helicopter after the Native American race, this twin-rotor helicopter was also named [Chinook].
--Chinook was originally developed as Bartle's prototype V-107, but it was improved because its performance did not meet the requirements, and was later adopted by the US Army as the CH-46 [Sea Knight].
--The relationship between Boeing and the Japanese aviation industry dates back to 1956 when Mitsubishi Heavy Industries began licensed production of the F-86 Saber. In 1959, Kawasaki Heavy Industries signed a V-107 license agreement with Bartle.
――The V-107 has become one of the most important models in both air defense and ground defense.
――Six months after this license agreement, Boeing acquired Bartle, and Boeing's helicopter division [Boeing Bartle] was born.
--Since 1984, Kawasaki Heavy Industries has manufactured licensed production of Chinook helicopters at the Gifu factory, and at that time, J was used instead of the model number D of the US military, and the model name was changed to CH-47J.
--From 1986 to 2012, Kawasaki Heavy Industries delivered a total of 69 CH-47Js and an improved version of the CH-47JA equipped with a large fuel tank and a state-of-the-art radar system, and delivered to the Japan Air Self-Defense Force. Also delivered 31 aircraft.
--CH-47J and CH-47JA are easy to load with their large lamps, can accommodate up to 55 people in the vast cabin space, and are special for disaster relief activities from normal missions such as personnel transportation. It is an indispensable aircraft for the Self-Defense Forces, boasting stable maneuverability in various situations up to missions.
