          Extract from an Army Newsletter, dated May 1962:

...The HC-1B Chinook helicopter, planned replacement for the H-37A Mojave medium transport helicopter, is now being tested at the Vertol Division of Boeing Airplane Company. Chinook was built specifically to carry the Pershing. Its lifting capability is three tons and it will transport a crew of three plus 33 fully-equipped troops, or 24 litters. The Chinook is powered by two turbine engines, making the helicopter capable of a speed of 130 knots. Deliveries under the present contract will begin in December 1962.
