There are militaries that have had some form of an airwolf copter, for some time

A traditional helo cannot break the speed of sound, about which airwolf was premised. The loss of lift and rotational speed of the blades required in the leading/trailing blade rotation can't be resolved.
It was a BS flawed storyline from the get go.
The F-35B with its VTOL fan blade and rotating rear nozzle is about the closest thing one might call a Mach speed helicopter but fails at every other helicopter function.
Ultimately, hybrid VTOL transport aircraft using turbofan like the Osprey will potentially break the sound barrier.
Round trip to mars will cost LESS than developing fully functional Airwolf (even if that is even possible). [AH64]
Many many many obstacles to achieve even unarmed.

This old lady handed her bank card to the teller and said ?I would like to withdraw $10?. The teller told her ?for withdrawals less than $100, please use the ATM.
The old lady wanted to know why... The teller returned her bank card and irritably told her ?these are the rules, please leave if there is no further matter. There is a line of customers behind you?.
The old lady remained silent for a few seconds and handed her card back to the teller and said ?please help me withdraw all the money I have.? The teller was astonished when she checked the account balance. She nodded her head, leaned down and respectfully told her ?you have $300,000 in your account but the bank doesn?t have that much cash currently. Could you make an appointment and come back again tomorrow?
The old lady then asked how much she could withdraw immediately. The teller told her any amount up to $3000. ?Well please let me have $3000 now.? The teller kindly handed $3000 very friendly and with a smile to her.
The old lady put $10 in her purse and asked the teller to deposit $2990 back into her account.
The moral of this story is....
Don?t be difficult with old people, they spent a lifetime learning the skill.
2 stories.
1. Many atm doesn't dispense $10 bill.
Oldblady 1 , Teller 0
2. Teller should have assisted or called manager for $10 withdrawl. bad on Teller.
old lady 2 : Teller 0
3. Old lady tries to withdrawl 300k like a stupid idiot without thinking about reserves.
old lady 2 : teller 1
4. Stupid dumbshit old lady withdrawl 3000 and despost back 10 during labor shortage. Glad branch manager did not beat the fk out of her and put some sense into her brain while stomping on her God damn face.
old lady 2 : teller 2
conclusion: both are stupid and arrogant. 🤣
It's probably a fake story anyway, as it has been floating around since before the labor shortage
