Few military aircraft have proven as indispensable on the modern battlefield as the Boeing CH-47 Chinook, the iconic twin-rotor heavy-lift helicopter that has served the United States Army and its allies since the early 1960s. CH-47 Chinook in Action chronicles the full operational history of this remarkable rotary-wing workhorse, presenting detailed technical profiles, line illustrations by Joe Sewell, and full-colour artwork by Don Greer that together paint a comprehensive portrait of the aircraft across its many variants and combat deployments, from the jungles of Vietnam to the mountains of Afghanistan. Part of Squadron/Signal Publications' celebrated Aircraft in Action series — Number 91 — this volume instructs both the scale modeller and the aviation historian with precise structural details, markings guides, and photographic documentation that illuminate every facet of the Chinook's design evolution. Wayne Mutza, a respected authority on military aviation, argues through meticulous research that the CH-47 represents one of the most successful and continuously developed heavy-lift platforms in aviation history. For anyone captivated by the machines that have quietly shaped the outcomes of modern warfare, this compact yet authoritative reference raises one compelling question: just how many missions would have been impossible without it?
