Le CH47 peut récupérer des appareils abattus.

OBS

Si l'aéronef n'a pas été abattu en temps de guerre, il faut éviter de traduire systématiquement «downed aircraft» par «aéronef abattu». Il faut selon le contexte employer les expressions suivantes : aéronef ou avion disparu (que l'on tente de localiser); aéronef ou avion qui s'est abîmé en mer; avion ou aéronef qui s'est écrasé (au sol en général) ou avion ou aéronef qui a effectué un atterrissage d'urgence.
