[edit] Biography
[edit] Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
In the Blackout mission, the SAS team under Captain Price must find and rescue him before the Ultranationalists can execute him for spying. He was informing the British from the Ultranationalist camp until his cover was blown. He helped to start the entire chain of events in Modern Warfare, as it was he that supplied the intel for the cargo ship mission.
In Hunted, the Black Hawk he and the team were aboard is shot down before they've left the area, and he is forced to fight alongside the team with no gear except the AK-74u he was found with. Finally, under cover of Spectre fire, he is evacuated by a second helicopter airlift to a safe house in Hamburg, and his last mention in the game is a loading cutscene in which he sends the SAS the coordinates to a safehouse in Azerbaijan.
Nikolai is seen carrying an AK-74u during Blackout and Hunted.
According to the text on Blackout loading cutscene, he is a former Red Army Senior Sergeant.
