Boeing is formally offering the CH-47 Chinook heavy-lift helicopter to Poland to support the country’s heavy transport needs. 

The announcement was made during the annual MSPO International Defence Industry Exhibition, which took place from September 3 to 6, 2024. This year, the event celebrated Poland’s NATO membership 25th anniversary. 

“The Chinook has been a key part of the European defense and humanitarian relief missions for more than five decades and would enhance Poland’s cooperation with allied forces, and support the country’s defense needs,” Tim Flood, Senior Director at International Business Development for Europe and Americas at Boeing, said in a press release, published on September 5, 2024. “In addition, the Chinook would deliver additional benefits to Poland through job creation, economic growth and greater autonomy for the Polish defense industry.”
