What I have about D-480. Still looking for photographs! This helicopter is registered with the Koninklijke Luchmacht as D-480 and has an upgraded cockpit configuration. The Royal Netherlands Air Force will receive 20 new CH-47F Chinooks to replace the CH-47D and F helicopters already serving the Netherlands. Boeing will complete new-build CH-47F deliveries to the Netherlands in 2021. Boeing is to temporarily suspend production activities at its Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, facilities - the location of the CH-47s final assembly line - for two weeks after the end of the working day on 3 April, due to measures adopted during the coronavirus pandemic.
