Firstly, this topic would be much better placed and probably get better/more responses in the Aeroscale Rotary Wing Forum since it is a helicopter, not an Armor/AFV subject nor Modern Armor.

I digress though. The color is CARC Green, FS34031. The closest model colors are by Testors Model Master in both enamel and acrylic as Helo Drab Green (enamel 2024, acrylic 4723).

The enamel color (left below) is more of a faded helo drab and the acrylic color (right below) looks more like a newer, brighter helo drab.



For a modern CH-47 in Iraq ('03 to present), you will want to get a CH-47D model.
