not sure if chinook can lift BX anot.. but think quite unlikely... as BX is not reall that light. Trained in chinook before... but stupid... never flew in it before..
Was told that it can hold 2 LSV inside.. or undersling 2 .. not sure can hold 2 inside n undersling 2 anot... but saw chinook undersling 2 LSVs in Wallaby cool... as you guys know RASAF never carry full combat load during training, they said its bcos not to strain the helo so it can have longer lifespan... -
i saw chinook carrying f-16 though

okay the D model can carry up to 11-12 tons, EXTERNALLY.
which is about 26000 lbs. -
Use chinooks carry bionix still slow..deployment..
12 at a time considering if need about 30 minutes to bring..
too slow..
Suggest rather the chinook carry those damaged BX in battle front for repairs more effective , as a medic
