The german government has announced to order 60x CH-47F Chinooks as replacement for the CH-53G Stallions.
The order has a value of 5 billion Euro.
The CH-53K was also considered but refused because of the high price.
For the same order value they would get only 40x King Stallions.
The CH-53G will be replaced until 2030.
