6-5-1. Mission Equipment.
CH-47D mission equipment includes the M-24 arma-
ment subsystem, the M-41 armament subsystem,either
the M-130 flare dispenser system, AN/ALE-47 Counter-
Measures Dispenser System (MDS), AN/ALQ-156 mis-
sile detector system, the cargo handling systems, the
cargo hooks and the static line retriever. The cargo han-
dling systems, (except HICHS) the cargo hooks, and the
static line retriever are included in the basic weight of the
helicopter or are listed on the chart C for the particular
helicopter. Figure 6-5-1 lists the weight and the mo-
ment/1,000 for the M-24 armament subsystem, the
M-130 flare dispenser systems and the AN/ALE-47
CMDS. If spare ammunition containers are carried on a
particular mission, compute the moment/1,000 for each
spare container from the cargo moments chart. Figure
6-6-5 provides the weight and moments charts for inter-
nal cargo, figure 6-6-6 charts for external cargo. HICHS
system weight and balance data is provided in table
6-5-2.
6-5-2. EAPS System Weight and Balance.
Table 6-5-1 provides planning data for changes to the
weight and balance with EAPS module/intake screen
removal/installation.
