Product Description
The CH-47 Chinook is a large, twin-engine, tandem-rotor, turboshaft transport helicopter developed in the United States based on the V-107.
The prototype made its maiden flight in 1961, and the first production model was delivered to the U.S. Army in 1962.
The Chinook, which has undergone successive improvements, is still in production 60 years after the prototype's first flight, and the number of aircraft produced has exceeded 1,200.
The CH-47D underwent extensive modifications, almost to the point of being a complete remanufacturing, to extend its operational lifespan, and the affected aircraft were assigned new serial numbers.
The CH-47F is the latest transport model to appear in the 21st century, primarily focused on improved engine power, a strengthened fuselage structure, updated avionics, and a digitalized cockpit. Both newly built aircraft and modified CH-47D aircraft exist.
The Greek Army operates nine CH-47D helicopters, which were modified from CH-47C models.
Includes photographs of Chinook helicopters from the Greek, American, and Spanish armies.
