Michael Coldsmith Briggs III
Background
Michael Coldsmith Briggs III is a high ranking member of the FIRM. His codename is Archangel.
During the events of Airwolf: Season 1 Episode 1-2 Shadow of the Hawke played by Alex Cord
Archangel sets up an exhibition for Senator Dietz of Ariwolf. He 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. After Airwolf successfully passes its tests and after the Senator congratulates Dr. 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. Archangel is injured and loses his left eye and is forced to use a cane. Three months later, Archangel, along with Gabrielle recruits Stringfellow Hawke to reclaim Airwolf. When Angela is killed in Tripoli, Archangel sends Gabrielle in her place. He is on a battleship with Marella and Captain Cameron during Hawke and Dominic's attempt to reclaim Airwolf, during which Airwolf disappears. He then goes to Hawke's cabin and recruits him to do missions for the FIRM. Before leaving, he asks Hawke if Gabrielle suffered before she was killed by Dr. Moffit.
