Academy 12624 - 1/144 CH-47D/F/J/HC.Mk.1 Four Nations Chinook

The Academy 12624 reproduces the CH-47 Chinook in small scale, focusing on the helicopters characteristic tandem rotor layout and cargo transport form. The kit suits hobbyists who want an accurate static model that conserves shelf space while showing key structural details.

Service Role and Model Fidelity

The Chinook has been employed in transport, resupply and evacuation roles thanks to its lift and stability. This kit concentrates on visible external features found across the D, F, J and HC.Mk.1 marks, so the model presents a credible reference for the type.

Building Notes and Finish Tips

Assembly calls for patience with small components and careful paint work at 1/144 scale. The kit requires glue and paint, and it builds into a tidy display piece that pairs well with other modern military models in a collection.

Is this kit appropriate for first time builders?

Beginners can attempt it, but the small scale and detail make it easier for modellers who have completed a few glue-and-paint projects already.

Can I add aftermarket decals or details?

Yes, many builders add aftermarket decals or fine-detail parts to enhance authenticity, though the kit includes its own four-nation decal set.

What display options work best for this scale?

Small clear stands or a simple base with a plaque work well at 1/144, keeping the focus on the models proportions while saving space in a collection.
