Can Airwolf: The Movie be found online, and is it available on Netflix, Hulu or Prime? Airwolf is one of a string of 1980s action-adventure shows that, like Knight Rider or Streek Hawk, focused on technologically advanced vehicles that also looked quite cool. Airwolf's first three seasons followed Vietnam vet Stringfellow Hawke (Jan-Michael Vincent) and his mentor Dominic Santini (Ernest Borgnine) as they flew the titular helicopter. Airwolf itself was a slick new attack helicopter armed with advanced weapons and tech, with Hawke and Santini piloting the copter on important missions for The Firm.
Airwolf beat out rival shows like Blue Thunder — based on the movie of the same name — and was a major hit for a while. However, gradually declining ratings, rising productions cost and issues revolving around Vincent's alcoholism led to it being canceled by CBS. However, the USA Network stepped in to pick up Airwolf but produced on a much lower budget. While Vincent appeared in one episode to pass the reins of piloting Airwolf to his brother John (Barry Van Dyke), Airwolf season 4 was a total reset. It featured a new cast and recycled helicopter footage from past seasons and only lasted for one season.
