Senator Dietz

Background

Senator Dietz is a United States senator.

During the events of Airwolf: Season 1 Episode 1-2 Shadow of the Hawke played by Eugene Roche

At Red Star Control in Devil's Anvil, California, Senator Dietz watches a demonstration of Airwolf put on by Michael Coldsmith Briggs III, Archangel, and Dr. Moffet. Archangel tells Senator Dietz that Airwolf can exceed the speed of sound and Marella explains how Airwolf works to the Senator. Archangel tells the Senator that the FIRM wants to give control of Airwolf over to the Department of Defense in exchange for the development costs and the first five Airwolves off the production line. Airwolf's abilities are tested against a mock Soviet defense crew. After Airwolf successfully passes its tests and after the Senator congratulates Moffet and crew, Moffet reminds the Senator about Project Proteus and then fires into the control tower, killing Senator Dietz and most of the tower crew.
