Pavel Kravitch was a Russian terrorist and communications expert for Black Baton and a close subordinate of Erich Rhoemer during the 1998 DC bombing operation. Although reputedly skilled in communications and electronics, Kravitch was particularly bad at firearms, leading to his untimely demise at the hands of Gabriel Logan.

Appearance

Kravitch has no distinguishing characteristics that set him apart from any Black Baton terrorist that was apart of the Washington DC Bombing. He wears the standard black ski-mask, the black cargo pants as well as a white sleeved shirt that appears to have overall straps on the sides. In contrast to the final game, his actual uniform differs in the demo where he is given something far different than his underlings. His age is unknown, but based on his Russian dialect, he would appear to be over the age of 30.

Appears In

Syphon Filter

When he's first introduced, he is seen walking in a video surveillance footage taken within the Washingon DC Subway station. Benton explains to Lian, whom did not recognize the man, that it is Pavel Kravitch, Rhoemer's communications expert. Benton gives the order that once Kravitch is eliminated, that his communications uplink must also be destroyed.

Upon starting his mission, Lian informs Gabe over a comm unit that she's identified Rhoemer on Level 1, Girdeux on Level 2, but has no sign of Kravitch or Aramov. Gabe makes his way into a restraunt after dealing with various Black Baton terrorists as well as assisting the CBDC, from which he locates Kravitch after Lian informs him of an interference in their communications...he's hiding behind a bar.

Death

Keeping his distance while firing with a 9mm Handgun, Kravitch ducks and covers behind the bar...moving out from his cover to try and attack Gabe before returning once more. He begins to speak in Russian. As Gabe closes in three more men appear from where he came, so Gabe quickly turns his attention to killing them...before returning to see Kravitch once more hiding behind the bar. Gabe pulls out his 9mm and fires a bullet at his skull...thus killing Kravitch.

Equipment

Flak Jacket

Kravitch is the first person seen wearing a Flak Jacket (aside from Gabe), so upon shooting him in the chest it's revealed that he can't be hurt. Through repeated firing the vest can be broken through, however Gabe takes a shot and goes for the head instead.

9mm Handgun

Standard issue and nothing special amongsts lesser Black Baton terrorists. He fired it from behind cover and occassionally would pop out to try and pick off a shot. The only issue is that his accuracy was so poor that it hardly landed a shot (Gabe would literally have to stand still for 10 seconds just to get hit).

Trivia

• While he appears like any normal Black Baton terrorist during his brief appearance, originally in the demo for Syphon Filter he was featured with an entirely different outfit that set him apart from the others. This outfit resembled the uniform used by terrorists in the subway (after it's destruction). The outfit can also be considered similar to Archer's subordinates in Syphon Filter 2, sadly in the final game Pavel was given just a normal uniform rather than anything to set him apart.
