Wokka Wokka Chinook and Dark Typhoons ---

Welcome to RAF Coningsby, the home of the Eurofighter Typhoon. Watch numbers 29, 41, 3, 12 and 11 squadrons going about their daily adventures at firgther town UK! The Chinook is an extremely capable and highly versatile support helicopter that can be operated from land bases or ships into a diverse range of environments, from the Arctic to the desert or jungle. The aircraft may be armed and is fitted with a suite of self-defence equipment allowing it to operate across the battlespace. Chinooks are primarily used for trooping, resupply and battlefield casualty evacuation (casevac). With its triple-hook external load system, internal cargo winch, roller conveyor fit and large reserves of power, the aircraft can lift a wide variety of complex underslung or internal freight, including vehicles. It can carry up to 55 troops or up to approximately 10 tonnes of mixed cargo. Secondary roles include search and rescue (SAR), and supporting a wide variety of specialist tasks, including the Military Aid to the Civil Authorities (MACA) commitment. A Chinook crew comprises two pilots and two crewmen, supplemented by specialists dependent upon mission requirements. In addition to its traditional warfighting roles, the Chinook’s lifting capability is held at readiness under the MACA commitment to respond to emergencies in the UK; in recent years these have included resupplying snowbound farmers in Northern Ireland and moving tons of aggregate to help reconstruct flood defences damaged by winter storms. In August 2019, a Chinook was instrumental in securing a dam on the Toddbrook Reservoir after it became structurally unsound following heavy rain. The current operational Chinook fleet comprises Mk 5, Mk 6 and Mk 6A aircraft, fitted with digital glass cockpits to a common standard. The Mk 6 was acquired as a UK-specific variant of the CH-47F and also introduced a Digital Automatic Flight Control System (DAFCS, pronounced ‘daffics’), greatly enhancing handling and safety, particularly when operating in recirculating dust or snow conditions. The Chinook HC.Mk 5 results from upgrade of the extended-range Mk 3, or ‘fat tank’ aircraft, which carries double the fuel load of a standard Chinook. The earlier Mk 4 Chinooks are being further upgraded to Mk 6A standard with the addition of DAFCS; the final aircraft is expected to be completed early in 2021. The 14 oldest Chinook helicopters, some of which are over 35 years old, will be replaced by the state-of-the-art H-47(Extended Range) from 2027 onwards in a phased retirement. H-47(ER) is a modern capability that will allow Defence to operate even closer with partner nations, including the US. This decision will allow greater efficiency within the maintenance cycles and better enable the transition process to the new aircraft. Enjoy!!
