Boeing CH-47 Chinook - fotod ja video

2007 Boeing CH-47 Chinook on Ameerika kahemootoriline tandemrootori raskeveokite helikopter. Selle peamised rollid on vägede liikumine, suurtükiväe paigutamine ja lahinguväljade varustamine. Sellel on kere taga lai laadimisramp ja kolm välist ventraalset lastikonksu. Tippkiirusega 170 sõlme (196 miili tunnis, 315 km / h) oli helikopter kiirem kui kaasaegsed 1960. aastatel kommunaalhelikopterid ja rünnaku helikopterid ning on endiselt üks kiiremaid helikoptereid USA inventaris. CH-47 on üks raskemaid tõstvaid Lääne helikoptereid. Selle nimi on pärit põlisameeriklaste Chinooki rahvalt.
