Customer Service Info
The CH-47D Chinook model uses a vast amount of details to make sure you don't miss a thing. Known for its multiple roles on the battlefield and its usefulness in the civilian world, the Chinook does everything from disaster relief to transportation. The Chinook helicopter model is an impressive sight, without being too big to fit in your office or library.
The CH-47D Chinook model shows a heavy-lift helicopter ideal for battlefield transportation manufactured by Boeing Helicopters. The CH-47D Chinook carries out transportation of troops, artillery, supplies and equipment to the battlefield. Other roles include medical evacuation, aircraft recovery, parachute drop, search and rescue, disaster relief, fire-fighting and heavy construction. The CH-47D helicopter model is equipped with a two 3-bladed contra-rotating rotors and no tail rotor. The rotor blades are fabricated from composite materials and are resistant to AAA (anti-aircraft artillery) fire up to 23mm. In the original military model, the basic crew compliment for the CH-47D is three; pilot, co-pilot, and crew chief.
Over 1,000 Chinooks are operational worldwide. Boeing has delivered more than 480 CH-47D Chinooks to the US Army and National Guard. Chinook aircraft models exported by Boeing to military and commercial operators in Argentina, Australia, Canada, Japan, Norway, Spain, the UK and three Far East countries. Like most US Army helicopters, the Chinook has advanced avionics and electronics, including the Global Positioning System.
The CH-47D helicopter model saw wide use in Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan and Operation Iraqi Freedom in Iraq. The Chinook was used in air assault missions, inserting troops into fire bases and later bringing food, water, and ammunition. The military model Chinook is typically escorted by attack helicopters such as the Apache for protection. The CH-47D was particularly useful in the mountainous terrain of Afghanistan where high altitudes and temperatures limited the use of the Black Hawk.
The CH-47D is currently in service as the Army's primary heavy lift and transportation helicopter.
Buy the CH-47D Chinook model helicopter for a glimpse into a fleet that is still over 1,000 strong.
