According to the computer readout seen during Season 1, Airwolf's offensive weapons include 40mm Cannons and .50 caliber Chain Guns mounted on each side in addition to its rocket pods. The machine guns were shown to have telescoping barrels, which allowed them to be stowed away when the helicopter configured itself to fly supersonic.

M1911A1
The M1911A1 is used throughout Season 2, notably by Archangel (Alex Cord) in "Fallen Angel" (S2E07).
As what was common for productions in the 1970's and 1980's, the Valmet M71S rifle is seen used as a substitute for the AK-47. In Season 2's "Short Walk to Freedom", Hawke is seen with the rifle.
An RPG-7 is seen used by various enemy forces throughout the series, most likely the same mockup used in the film Red Dawn (filmed only a year before the series went into production). In Season 1's "Mad Over Miami" (S1E07), Cuban forces are seen trying to take down Airwolf with one, as it's erroneously identified as an anti-aircraft weapon.
The M72 LAW is seen during a weapons demonstration in Season 2's "HX 1". In Season 2's "Out of the Sky", a LAW is fired at Airwolf from another helicopter.
