How would Airwolf fare on the modern battlefield?

You mean with it's plot armour, or no?

With Ernest Borgnine riding shotgun, there's no way you could lose

It wouldn't because in real life when a helicopter's rotors break the sound barrier they stop working and you crash. The military would love a helicopter like Airwolf if physics allowed it but it doesn't.

it's simple, attach a rocket turbine on helicopter, now break the sound barrier and the helicopter maintains enough thrust not to crash.

>Turn the helicopter into a jet

They tried that, it didn't work. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_X-50_Dragonfly

It's not stealth so that's not great. Might act like an aerial Jagdpanther as a mid range stand off patrol craft

Why did the Draken suck so much in South American cartel service? Were their pilots just bad? Obviously the Scorpion air superiority helicopter (that's definitely NOT an MD500 with a couple doodads on it) is the best and can hold off the entire US military but what gives?

Hmm... like in real life. Controlled flight into terrain in adverse weather conditions with no survivors.

If you credit every concept as working, for it's time, it would stomp ass.
Remember, if you put together everything Dom's computers do in all the episodes, the fucking thing has the internet. They were shooting someone in a commie block apartment and the computer ID'ed a fridge as being "old and dense, probably bullet proof" according to Dominick.
Of course if you ever read the comics lol... let's say it's different.

Airwolf, genius. It was a tv show in the 80s.

Real world is not War Thunder where you have a 3rd person camera and can see a missile flying towards you.

I love the way they're almost fucking bumping into eachother for a dogfight to the degree they can't even get a proper lock on missiles for no reason

Unironically why can't a drone be used for exactly that? A small drone mothered to the larger craft flying just behind it at all times for an over rotor vista optics.

Because this is an old Roach Cobra and all new airframes come with built in systems doing exactly that, like MAWS/PIMAWS.

Why do you call it Scorpion? The official name was Redwolf.
