The Metal Earth CH-47 Chinook models are amazingly detailed etched models that are fun and satisfying to assemble. Each model is made from a pair of completely flat laser-etched steel sheets. This American tandem rotor, heavy-lift helicopter was first used during the Vietnam War. Powered by two 4,733 horsepower turbo-shaft engines, it has a top speed of 196 mph which made it faster than any other utility and attack helicopter at that time. It remains in production and frontline service, with over 1,200 built to date.
This intricately designed model has many different pieces for you to work with in your aircraft construction. These authentic, museum quality replicas are each cut from an eleven centimetre piece of steel using laser technology.
Assembled size 18.5 x 9.3 x 4.7 cm and is very intricate and a bit tricky.
