RAF to buy 14 new Chinook helicopters in £1bn deal

The RAF is to receive 14 new Chinook helicopters in a £1bn contract, the Ministry of Defence has said.

The deal, with US firm Boeing, will bring the total force of Chinooks to 60 - the biggest capability in Europe.

Announcing the deal at RAF Odiham, in Hampshire, Defence Secretary Liam Fox said the government was "committed to delivering a top-class equipment programme that is properly funded".
