The ch-47 is a twin-engine, tandem rotor helicopter designed for transportation of cargo, troops, and weapons during day, Night, visual, and instrument conditions. Development of the medium lift Boeing vertol (models 114 and 414) ch-47 series Chinook began in 1956. Since then the effectiveness of the Chinook has been continually upgraded by successive product improvements, the ch-47a, ch-47b, ch-47c, and ch-47d. The amount of load a cargo helicopter can carry depends on the model, the fuel on board, the distance to be flown, and atmospheric conditions. The ch-47d shares the same airframe as earlier models, The main difference being the adoption of more powerful engines. Early ch-47ds were originally powered by two t55-l-712 engines, The most common engine is the later t55-ga-714a. With its triple-hook cargo system, the ch-47d can carry heavy payloads internally and up to 26, 000 pounds (12 T) (such as 40-foot or 12-metre containers) externally. It was first introduced into service in 1979. In Air assault operations, It often serves as the principal mover of the 155 mm M198 howitzer, accompanying 30 rounds of ammunition, and an 11-man crew. The ch-47d also has advanced avionics, such as the global positioning system. Nearly all us Army ch-47d were conversions from previous a, B, and C models, A total of 472 being converted. The last U.S. Army ch-47d built was delivered to the U.S. Army reserve, located at fort hood, Texas, in 2002. Pictured here is a 1: 72 scale replica of a us Army boeing-vertol ch-47 Chinook helicopter that was attached to a company, 7th Battalion, 101st airborne division "screaming Eagles", then deployed to Afghanistan during 2003.
