If it is the CH-46 version, I believe the new Academy 1/48 scale CH-46 comes in that version.

I can find that one but I was looking for the helo that traditionally transports the President which is the VH-3 a derivative of the Sikorsky SH-3A Sea King. The link below shows a model of the bird but does not say if it is plastic, wood or what.

I can find it in Die Cast at several locations but that takes the fun out of it...........

Paddywagon,
You didn't say what scale you were looking for. Hasegawa makes a 1/48 UH-3 and SH-3. There would be some conversion you would have to do but at least you found the decals.

If you're looking for 1/72 SH-3 to convert, Fujimi and Airfix both manufactured this type, but no VH-3.

If you're looking for a 1/72 base kit for the Sea King, the Revell Germany version is much better than the Airfix one, albeit based on the Westland versions. You could buy the Airfix version, which is quite cheap, for the bits that are different on the SH-3, but you'd have to scratch-build the cabin interior, windows, aerials, jammers, and other assorted electronic gubbins.
