Italeri did both a 1/72 and 1/48 ACH=47A  Armed Chinook. Both can be made into a straight approximation of a standard CH-47A with some work. Biggest mod will be filling the hole in the aft side for the gun station. Blades are pretty close, and the pylon has the tapered aft part. Here's a link on how to fix  the window:

Trumpeter also has a CH-47A in 1/72, scaled down from the 1/35 kit

Italeri did a 1/48 and (I think) 1/72 HC.1/CH-47C which can also represent a CH-47B.

All have some features which are incorrect but that most people wont notice, and will build to an adequate 'Hook'.

I don't think any are in production right now, but most show up on ebay, and the 'buy,sell,trade' forum here have some. And of course, ebay.

Hope this was useful.
