The CH-47SD International Chinook, launched in 1998, lifts twice as much. At peak production in 1967, the Boeing Vertol Philadelphia plant produced a new Chinook every 24 hours, and by 2002, the Chinook’s high speed and large payload gave it the lowest cost-per-ton-mile of any transport helicopter available. U.S. Army Special Operations Forces also operate Special Operations Chinooks, designated as MH-47Ds and MH-47Es. The MH-47Es are among the most advanced rotorcraft in operation today. Special Operations Chinooks perform low-level, high-speed flights at night and in adverse weather.BI21212 (c13)Maximum size:4796px × 7269px (~99 MB)15.9in × 24.2in (300dpi)License type:Rights ManagedKeywords:1960s-automobiles-black-blue-blue skies-blur-cargo handling-clear skies-currently in production-day-Echo Voyager-exteriors-flying-full body views-ground to air-H-47 Chinook-helicopters-hovering-lifting-military-nobody-photos-power-rear views-rotorcraft-silhouettes-sunshine-tandem-rotor helicopters-transports-viewed from below-vivid colorRelated Photo/Videos:View All
