Falkland Mod - Pictures of the new CH47
AfrographX presented four pictures of his CH-47 for the 1982: Flashpoint in the Falklands mod in the BIS Forums.
On the following two screenshots you can see the Argentine Ch-47 modell 309 (simliar to the Ch-47C) with the tail-number AE-520. It’s one of the two Argentine Chinooks that operated on the Falkland islands during the war. AE-520 got later captured by British Forces, AE-521, the second chinook, was hit by canon fire on the ground.
The heli on the next pictures is a British Ch-47 HC.1, callsign Bravo November. It was the only Chinook that survived the attack on the Atlantic Conveyor (which carried all the Task Forces Chinooks). So during the first weeks of the war it was the only heavy-lift helicopter avaiable to the British task force.-AfrographX
