description: # from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_CH-47_Chinook
|
|
In 2001, the CH-47F, an upgraded CH-47D, made its maiden flight. The first production model rolled out at Boeing's
|
|
facility in Ridley Park, Pennsylvania, and first flew on 23 October 2006. Upgrades included 4,868-shaft-horsepower
|
|
(3,630 kW) Honeywell engines and airframe with better integrated construction for lower maintenance requirements.
|
|
The milled construction reduces vibration, as well as inspection and repair needs, and eliminates flexing points to
|
|
increase service life. The CH-47F can fly at speeds of over 175 mph (282 km/h) with a payload of more than
|
|
21,000 lb (9,500 kg). New avionics include a Rockwell Collins Common Avionics Architecture System (CAAS) cockpit,
|
|
and BAE Systems' Digital Advanced Flight Control System (DAFCS). AgustaWestland assembles the CH-47F under license,
|
|
known as the Chinook ICH-47F, for several customers. Boeing delivered 48 CH-47Fs to the U.S. Army through August 2008;
|
|
at that time Boeing announced a $4.8 billion (~$6.67 billion in 2023) contract with the Army for 191 Chinooks.
