The CH-47A, first delivered for use in Vietnam in August 1962, is a tandem-rotor medium transport helicopter.
The main task of the Chinook is the movement of artillery, ammunition, personnel and supplies to the battlefield.
It also performs rescue, aeromedical, parachute, rescue and special operations.
Early production CH-47As operated with the 11th Air Assault Division during 1963, and in October of that year the aircraft was officially designated as the Army's standard medium transport helicopter.
