It says it at the end of the video @Brickle Hey man! I'm pretty sure you're the one with the 47 Driver YouTube channel, right? If so, is it possible you could make some videos reviewing what ED has given us in the CH-47F pre-order video, and their posts to Instagram? I feel like I saw some things missing. Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev2go Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 In the trailer the ch47f was only shown m60 door guns.

The British ones as late as 2007 used M60s or Miniguns. Which is odd as M60s were never a gun used by the British in an infantry capacity but the FN MAG was. 1 i7 13700k @5.2ghz, GTX 3090, 64Gig ram 4800mhz DDR5, M2 drive.

Indeed, that's me. Just getting off my feet with the channel, but I'll be hopefully doing some more stuff soon. I will take a look at what ED has put out and I can do a discussion based video about it for sure. Thanks for the support! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says either M60D or M240H machineguns can be used, so i do hope that just because ED said its a "2007" Ch47F does not mean its only limited to the M60 door guns.

freehand Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Chinooks fly over my dwelling regular I hear then well before they arrive so must bag this module not far from me near "tony martins" house not the singer , one was hovering over a farm dropping something off not sure why or what but strangely strange but oddly true. Nice one ED. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice one ED. Army helicopters strangely do "farm" work, or general humanitarian work. I've seen Blackhawks guide animals to their gates, Chinooks drop hay bales, etc. I believe it's mainly NG doing that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I'm saying if the brits used the M60 on their Hooks even through they normally don't even have that weapon in their inventory. Then there's probably a reason both the Americans and brits used them on the hooks so long. 19 minutes ago, Vortexstate said: Army helicopters strangely do "farm" work, or general humanitarian work.

Instead of just burning taxpayer bought fuel to get flight hours. They help while getting training. 1 i7 13700k @5.2ghz, GTX 3090, 64Gig ram 4800mhz DDR5, M2 drive.

slowmover Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 “With the capability to cover extensive distances swiftly, the CH-47F can be outfitted with extended range fuel tanks and is compatible with air-to-air refuelling, thus extending its operational range further than ever before. This capability underscores the aircraft's adaptability and endurance, making it a formidable asset in any fleet” As far as i know only the MH-47 has the possibility of aerial refueling. We getting an us army ch-47. Will it have air refueling? 2 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We getting an us army ch-47. Will it have air refueling? No, the CH-47F does not have an AAR probe. But it would be a fun option to add anyways. I bet someone'll make a literal MH-47G mod for the exterior, possibly with actual AAR capabilities 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vortexstate Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 The pitch control links don't seem to be connected to the literal pitch control arms...Or at least that's what I assume is the PCL? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vortexstate Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 (edited) Also, the backup instrument is completely off. Also seems to be way too light. Here's a list of things I pointed out, that I believe are wrong; The backup instrument is completely wrong in the CH-47F Some caution advisories are missing, taking into account that they were even displayed. Pitch control links don't seem to be connected to the pitch control arms Chronometer isn't on Spotted that the slip indicator was perfectly neutral in a left hand bank Edited April 21 by Vortexstate 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
