Airwolf itself was in fact a highly modified Bell 222 helicopter worth over a million dollars in 1987, and was supplied by the Hollywood firm Jetcopters Inc. At that time there were only 85 Bell 222's, so it wasn't a machine that had a profile that most people were used to.
In reality, Airwolf's speed and abilities are of course the result of clever editing and camera trickery, but the additions to the helicopter caused only a 20 knot speed drag on the machine.
After the series ended, all the special airframes and components were removed from Airwolf and the helicopter was repainted and became an ordinary Bell 222.

 The History behind the Airwolf Themes soundtrack project
MARK J. is a huge AIRWOLF fan, having been Head of the International AIRWOLF Appreciation Association for over 10 years during the late 80s and early 90s, he worked hard in the late 1990s to recreate the show's music for an officially-licensed, double CD soundtrack release.
I did a few more episodic tracks, sent them to Gerry R. Forrester, who was an AIRWOLF Appreciation Association member at the time and a professional soundtrack producer in his spare time.
Meanwhile, I was constantly developing new episodic tracks from AIRWOLF, as close to their original sound, feel and arrangement as was humanly possible without the original synths, equipment and sound engineers - even then it would have be impossible to recreate every nuance in exacting detail.
