Yeah - why would you want your mascot to do very dangerous missions at all! Even without the super serum stuff, they were outnumbered and trying to fight on a moving truck.

And it's a secret mission, so it's not even like they're getting footage.

They tried to handwave how "normal" Walker was pre-serum, they have the whole thing about how he's such an accomplished soldier that MIT scientists wanted to study his body because he's the absolute peak of human performance etc

Kinda funny that if you take Agents of SHIELD as canon that somebody must have considered giving John Walker the Project Patriot treatment that created Jeffrey Mace and somebody just said "nah we don't remember who was in charge of that"

You'd think they'd have at least gotten him an iron man suit, they had plenty of them.

I still can’t get over that Sam Wilson’s whole wings thing is just normal military hardware. How is that not just a slightly higher tech version of Black Widow or Hawkeye

The Falcon suit he has as an Avenger is implied to be Stark-upgraded tech that is way, way more expensive than the one he had when he was just one guy in a unit of wingsuit guys

The one in Winter Soldier gets its wing shot off by regular gunfire while the Avenger one is specifically bulletproof (and he can use the wings as a shield)

Like the whole reason they shut down the program initially is that the wingsuits, when built with the government's state-of-the-art technology, are a horrible death trap It's implied most of Sam's unit were KIA and he was one of the lucky ones
