This new decal sheet from Fireball Modelworks includes markings for 6 different 1/72 Eurocopter UH-72 Lakota to fit the Revell and Heller kits. 

For 1/72 scale, the Revell 04653 EC145 Police/Gendarmerie kit is probably the best choice, but the Heller 50375 EC 145 Sécurité Civile kit and the Heller 80379 UH-72A Lakota kit are also available. The main things you'll need to make sure your kit contains are the wire strike protection kit with the two blades and the long deflectors on the skid tips. All Lakotas are equipped with these parts.
