AgustaWestland ICH-47F Chinook

AgustaWestland and Boeing signed an industrial agreement for the joint manufacture of the ICH-47F in July 2008. Under the agreement AgustaWestland, the prime contractor for the Italian Army programme, is responsible for systems integration, final assembly and aircraft delivery to the customer. The 2009 original AgustaWestland-Boeing industrial agreement also included a licensing arrangement that enables AgustaWestland to market, sell and produce the Boeing CH-47F Chinook to the United Kingdom (which was finally built by Boeing), other European countries and several countries in the Mediterranean region
