Warhawk is a unplayable vehicle made for Twisted Metal: Black, acting as the final boss of the game.

As Warhawk is a flying vehicle, it uses Zoomy Missiles instead of machine guns.

Special Weapon

• Warhawk's Ricochet: Warhawk unleashes his own version of the ricochet weapon from the underside of the helicopter. Works like a ordinary ricochet, except for doing a lot more damage in bank shot bonus.

The identity of Warhawk's pilot is unknown, all that is known is that Agent Stone, the driver of Outlaw, knew him. It is also revealed in Needles' storyline that he was the one who captured him and put him in Blackfield Asylum. Despite Warhawk being the final boss, he was not actually part of the tournament and only appeared to put an end to the mayhem.

Trivia

• Warhawk was originally intended to be a playable character and even had pictures for the character select screen, as well as having a cut-in portrait for the game's loading screens. However, during this character's development, it was discovered that most of the levels weren't designed to be played by flyable vehicles and due to the lack of time this idea was cut.
  • Eventually, there would be a playable helicopter in the series.
• At the hacked vehicle selection screen, Warhawk's front end resembles that of an actual hawk, complete with beak (nose cone) and nostrils (air intakes). Also, it is revealed that the original name for Warhawk was "Black Razer".
• On the Junkyard level, if you ride the vertical car crusher to the top, the black cube for unlocking Warhawk's Rooftop for Multiplayer is up there.
  • Upon obtaining the cube, the text "WARHAWK UNLOCKED" appears on the screen. This caused confusion for some plays who thought they had just unlocked the vehicle. However, this is because the level's name in multiplayer is just "Warhawk".
• Warhawk looks different from his cutscene counterpart during gameplay.
• Its name may be a reference to the 1995 video game WarHawk, a game created by the same people who helped make the Twisted Metal series, that was developed and released right alongside Twisted Metal (1995), and was even a part of the game during early development in where the player would attack drivers in the Warhawk plane. They were eventually separated and codenamed 'Red Mercury' (WarHawk) and 'Firestorm' (TM(1995)).
• Warhawk's personal role in Twisted Metal: Black seems to reflect the role of Carl & Jamie Roberts in previous games, as they were good cops who only wanted to bring an end to the Twisted Metal Tournament.
• In the beta, if you modify and mute ambience and vehicle audios ingame you can hear Warhawk's cut dialogues.
