In 1.11 another LongRanger is seen, or is it just the Archangel chopper sporting another elaborate paint job? It is used by D.G Bogarde, a government official desperate to take Airwolf back from Hawke.

As Russian enemy aircraft described as MiG 23s in 1.04.

Airwolf 1.04 MiG 23 2.jpg
Airwolf 1.04 MiG 23 7.jpg

Also seen in 1.02. The stock footage used is mostly the same between the two episodes. Note the error in the screen describing the aircraft as a MiG 23S 'Flogger-B'... the 23S was referred to as 'Flogger-A'.

Unidentified Aircraft

Also from 1.04 and meant to be a MiG 23 but I think it is a different type of plane from above.

Airwolf 1.04 Poss MiG 23.jpg

Unidentified Aircraft

This refueling rig appears twice in the episode as Airwolf refuels to get to Russia. The pilot and co-pilot speculate as to what the aircraft they are refueling is. At the end and to resolve a bet they ask another member of crew to check. When he tells them it is a helicopter they question his sanity.

From 'Echoes of the Past': This is supposed to be a Libyan Airforce "MiGs" which is escorting the Hercules transporting Airwolf. When Airwolf escapes from the Hercules' cargohold they pursue and Airwolf blows it out of the sky.

McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II

From 1.07, these American fighter aircraft are owned by arms dealer Hans Daubert and he sends them to chase after Airwolf.

Also from 'Fight Like a Dove' this jet is used by Daubert to demonstrate a missile system he wishes to sell. He has promised the pilot $1million if he succeeds in beating the four missiles. The pilot successfully evades the first three missiles, unfortunately he fails to beat the final one.

In 1.11 String needs to hide Airwolf from US military satellites used by D.G. Bogarde to hunt for it. His hiding place is an Aircraft Bone Yard (played by the bone yard at Mojave Air and Space Port). In this bone yard we can see a couple of scrapped C-133s. They appear to be N136AB and N136AR.
