Every time I hear Airwolf's voice I get shivers down my back. Even after all the years, she is still the best fighting aircraft out there. Would love to fly her in real time not just my dreams.
Me too. It just never gets old. Still gives me to this day the same thrill it did when I was toddler and there are not many things I can say that about
The amount of editing that goes into making it look ABSOLUTELY ONPOINT is beyond genius!!! And to still look believable in this age of super realistic cg, just goes to show how genius the editing team was. No wonder we all fell in love with it!
@@gerv55I really like the part where the mig smokes and then explodes Much better than the original! also how he switches off the afterburner to erase his heat signature so the IR missile gets confused
? What system do you use ? I messed around with avid a bit. I used to reedit BSG> Star Trek tso lots of junk and a lot of fun on slow dais,so I always looked busy.@@gerv55
Oh! That old movie with the Republic F-84F Thunderstreaks as MiGs! Been years since Rock Hudson fought in Korea. Some of the best dogfight footage ever until that time.
I watched this as a teen, and loved it although I knew most of it was Hollywood BS. Then when I was 17, I joined the Army National Guard as a helicopter mechanic (and went active duty a couple of years later as a Combat Medic), and REALLY have to laugh at the stuff they showed in this series now 😂😂😂. Still one of my favorites though.
Helicopters has a natural speed limit, about 450km/h. If you add it`s speed if the craft plus the speed of end of the rotor it easliy excedess the speed of sound and back making the end of the rotor prone to crack. Could the jet make it go faster? Yes, but probaly it would broke the rotor.
Afterburners on a helicopter was the most ridiculous, unrealistic thing ever. But it was cool as hell. I would totally love to write a story to bring back Airwolf for one last mission.
Mixed footage, but they were definitely Sabres and Thunderstreaks. In the 1980's there may have been a handful of MiG-17's still in service with some countries who didn't need/couldn't afford better.
A Rock Hudson movie set in the Korean War. Real F-86 Sabres, and real F-84F Thunderstreaks. Some of the best jet dogfight footage until many years later.
Optical effects as a lot of the footage of enemy jets is stock footage, you factor in blue\grey skies and it made sense to do something to the effect that made it stand out from the background.
So I might be more than a bit of a geek - but in the flying sequences (aside from where they used models), the aircraft the air craft look like F-86 Sabres & F-84 thunder streak :)
Imagine being the pilot that ejected after being hit and surviving and gets debriefed by his superiors try to explain being shot down by a helicopter lol
I loved and still this show. What is funny Airwolf really did not take on the Soviets, it was really destructive to the Cuban air force. Stll well done.
Well... Not exactly, the reason the helicopter was called Airwolf in the first place was that It was an armed-vehicle disguised as a civilian one (like a Wolf in sheep's clothing); Althoguh the name "Steel-Eagle" does Sound pretty cool aswell. (Though it's called "Águia de Fogo" not "Águia de aço").
Nah, we already had "Iron Eagle" with Lou Gossett Jr. (with a F-16 rather than a F-15, because of course), and what is steel really but mostly iron with a little bit of carbon and a maybe a sprinkling of a couple other elements tossed in?
they're pretty time consuming to make if you go the route i do with scouring episodes for clips of sound effects with no speech or music over them, though some of the sounds are off an effects cd.. Making one with music over it and no sounds is much easier.
Right! ...well, now that I think about it we'll have to send airwolf and another helicopter to follow close behind and play the airwolf theme over loudspeakers. Lol
Thise is a just movie, But helicopter using for groud only attack, and support, not willing dog fight to aircraft's... And... Aircraft is powerfull mechine, and then powerfull war mechine, very intelligence in dog fight, high speed, etc
Should make a video-game of Airwolf. There it can defy physics and exist. Plus we can fly it Aerial missions offcourse Combined with on ground spy like infiltration stealth missions Set in the 80' offcourse Be part of some historical events perhaps
I don’t understand the laughter when people make fun of old movies. Because they show superhero technology (which cannot fly so fast and destroy everyone). We now understand that this is just a movie, and (I'm sure) children loved it at that time. This is not a documentary, but our fantasy. Thanks to the moviemakers from Russia.

Me and my boys, when they were kids, never missed this show. Those were the days.
Yep, Airwolf and many other programs. Good times.

I used to watch it every Saturday on UK tv but the missiles made of light always made me laugh
Optical effects, no real other way to do them, plus they showed up better against a blue or white sky, whereas a grey missile would be harder to see.
@@gerv55 I know lol just found amusing
It used to come on LWT.
I was watching the video frame by frame, but the missiles are animated, right?
@@Ken1Yam yup, some missiles were mounted to the camera helicopter and filmed, but the yellow/orange ones are animated optical effects.

Но МиГ 17 сняли с вооружения еще в начале 1970-ых!
Nice I love these Airwolf battles you make
No finer sight on TV in the 80s than watching Airwolf kick ass!!!!
I love how so many of the sound FX were used across so many of the TV series of my youth...
I love Airwolf. I was born in Tawan, 1979 ❤
Few other wolf vids on this channel to watch 🙂
Airwolf could clearly battle with MIG-17s. Unfortunately we never got to see if it could fare well against MIG-29s.
NERD!!! Just kidding good comment
Strictly speaking, they are not MiG-17s but F-84 Thunderjet.
Did you know the actual helicopter is used today to fight forest fires? Check it out , it’s pretty cool.
@@patrickwalker711 F-84F Thunderstreak. ;)

I love the sound airwolf would make as it was flying that's howls as it fly's
Aka The Wolf's Howl
Sounded like a Sand Person from StarWars.
@@stevedoe1630...Maybe, show producers got "Wolf Howl" from TIE fighters?
@@stevedoe1630 Yeah, I think Obiwan made that noise
We had this show on telly in 90's as iron curtain collapsed. Remember watching this with my mouth wide open. Couldn't wait for next episode.
Crazy accelerating maneuvering high pitch sound frequencies 😂😂😂😂😂
Welcome to 80s TV.
Thanks for that clip of Air wolf 🐺 I'm thinking of watching the TV series again I've not watched it for a Long time best TV show of the 1980s
3 other vids on the channel for airwolf :)
As if the dogfight was cool enough, they end it iconically with "the scream" of the Airwolf engine as it banks home.
Those were the days. My childhood.
Best Edit of Airwolf
i've seen on youtube since years !
(since Airwolf vs Redwolf)
Thanks
Check out the proof through the night remake 🙂
Me encanta el sonido de lobo del aire cuando acelera, toda la vida me ha gustado ese gruñido de batalla
I miss the 80's so much.
Airwolf was such a great tv series.
Love Airwolf, thought about my pilots helicopter licence once. Great theme music for Airwolf.
Wow. That was so well put together, your skills are superb!
I feel like I’m 10 again!!
🫡
Thanks, though I think the proof through the night one is better ☺️
@@gerv55 I’ll check that out now 👍🏼😊
Actually pretty cool for 80s TV!
The episodes where the enemies were fighter planes or other military aircraft were the best ones!
Awesome show. Takes me back.
As an adult/Kid this show was so badass, all the things we have created but still not a semi-powered jet helicopter..
Helicopters has a natural speed limit, about 450km/h. If you add it`s speed if the craft plus the speed of end of the rotor it easliy excedess the speed of sound and back making the end of the rotor prone to crack. Could the jet make it go faster? Yes, but probaly it would broke the rotor.

the inertia dampeners on Airwolf worked better than the ones on Enterprise
Loved the sound of the show
That's damn good.. Excellent
before Top Gun there was Airwolf..
Sabres and Thunderstreaks stood in as MiG-17s. Clearly Airwolf was of alien tech alternating between deck and 33kft.
That's where the turbos came in 🙂 They got up over 80,000 feet in the show.
Mixed footage, but they were definitely Sabres and Thunderstreaks. In the 1980's there may have been a handful of MiG-17's still in service with some countries who didn't need/couldn't afford better.
@@gerv55In the 80s, there was nothing a good turbo boost couldn’t do.
Aww…you got in before me :) - glad to know I was right 😊
A Rock Hudson movie set in the Korean War. Real F-86 Sabres, and real F-84F Thunderstreaks. Some of the best jet dogfight footage until many years later.
Very realistic, Thanks!
What always cracked me up as a kid watching was when missiles fired they glowed like lasers lol

They were. But in their defense Soviet Migs weren't exactly easy to come by back in the day.
Imagine being the pilot that ejected after being hit and surviving and gets debriefed by his superiors try to explain being shot down by a helicopter lol
Imagine a MiG-15 pilot having to explain he was shot down by a Sea Fury.
His Boss: 'Ah, yes, the Sea Fury... who wouldn't want one of those...'
I loved this as a kid, pretty hokey now...
One of my favorite tv series...
Автором сценария была Шахерезада 💯
I love the soumd airwolf makes
If the had today effects you would see airwold and the jets in the same frame.
I loved and still this show. What is funny Airwolf really did not take on the Soviets, it was really destructive to the Cuban air force. Stll well done.
Check my 'proof through the night redux' vid to see some soviet action 🙂
The only helicopter that could engage jet fighters.
Pretty sure Blue Thunder took on a couple of Jets. "Follow my leader" ;-)
@@jymbo7 I'm unfamiliar with blue thunder 😳
Any helicopter can engage jet fighters if they fly low and the heli has missiles.
@@anzaca1 Airwolf can engage anywhere
In Brazil the show was called something like "Steel Eagle", wich makes more sense that Airwolf.
Well... Not exactly, the reason the helicopter was called Airwolf in the first place was that It was an armed-vehicle disguised as a civilian one (like a Wolf in sheep's clothing);
Althoguh the name "Steel-Eagle" does Sound pretty cool aswell.

Actually, is fire eagle.

Send Airwolf to Ukraine.
😂😂😂 This most childish comments..
Also send Superman, Batman and Spiderman...and some others mans too
Right! ...well, now that I think about it we'll have to send airwolf and another helicopter to follow close behind and play the airwolf theme over loudspeakers. Lol

That's a bad idea, without the main theme playing the plot armor won't work.
AMAZING!!!!!!!!!
Okay... the explosions are cheesy. But we all loved our A-Team kind of shows in the 80's.
Part of my childhood))
when Jan Michael Vincent dropped out of the show due to severe addiction to alcoholism and got replaced by some other dude, the show just went kaput.
I don’t understand the choice in sound effects at the end, but I recognize them!
Those are some of the sounds the copter made on the show.
Helicopter vs Airplane is just fantastic comparison. Airvolf is great film, but it is a fairy tale. Keep calm.
It's called science fiction.
@@gerv55 Absolutely agree!
Esa música es lo más!!! 🙂
Könnte ich mir Stundenlang ansehen ^^ und ich glaube das habe ich xD

Only if .....the US would have like a 1000 of these Already
Well would have been a huge difference back in the 80s.

This should be taught in school, how Airwolf ended the Cold War.
How dare they take on the mighty airwolf no enemy craft with will ever defeat her.
Dam those Russian jet fighters forgot to load heat seeking missiles........
True 👍
Man, the skies above Southern California were a bit hostile during the 1980s.😂
Russian Migs had a higher Horizontel stabilizer in the tail these are F-86 's ...
Blowing Russian fighter Jets out of the sky has to be quite a fearsome task. MiG Alley turns into massive wreck alley.
