Gunrunner's Paradise is the 10th mission in Hitman: Codename 47. It is the first of a two mission hit on Arkadij Jegorov.

It was combined with Plutonium Runs Loose and remade as Deadly Cargo in Hitman: Contracts.

Target(s):

• Ivan Zilvanovitch (listed as a target to encounter, not assassinate)

Description

Sandy dancing on the pole.

After Agent 47's success in Hungary at the Hotel Gallard, he is sent in another mission.

Agent 47 must assassinate the man who was supplying Lee Hong and Pablo Ochoa with weapons, Arkadij Jegorov. First though, he needs to get to Ivan Zilvanovitch in order to place a tracking beacon in his limousine, so as to find Jegorov's location.

To do so, 47 needs to find a wharehouse were a deal is to be made between Ivan and the Flaming Windmills Dutch gang.

Weirdly enough, the last few men Agent 47 assassinated were all part of the French Foreign Legion, and have been actively communicating with each other.

Mission Briefing

There are spoilers ahead

"Welcome to Rotterdam. Your next target is the man who supplied Lee Hong and Pablo with weapons, the notorious gunrunner Arkadij Jegorov, aka Boris. Boris is hiding on his ship somewhere in the harbor of Rotterdam, but we do not know the exact location. We have information that a local Dutch Gang has arranged to purchase some of Boris's merchandise. By tracking them, we might be able to locate the ship.

Our intelligence department has stumbled across a weird fact that you should know. It seems that Lee Hong, Boris, Frantz Fuchs, and Pablo all served in the French Legion together. If that is a coincidence, it is one weird coincidence... Diana Burnwood, Controller, The Agency"

Objectives

• Place GPS tracker in the gang car.
• Move GPS tracker to the money suitcase.
• Give the suitcase to Ivan.

Reward: $50,000

Intelligence

Gunrunner's Paradise Map.

The Dutch Gang is meeting with Ivan somewhere in the harbor area. We do not know exactly where. The gang's hideout place is a small strip joint. Place a GPS transmitter in the gang's car, and follow the car to the meeting place. Eliminate all gang members at the meeting, before Ivan shows up. Make sure Ivan does not see any dead bodies. He is very cautious and will abort the meeting at any suspicious sign. Pick up the GPS transmitter from the car and place it in the suitcase carrying the money for Ivan. Make sure Ivan picks up the suitcase. Hopefully Ivan will return straight to Boris with the money, revealing his hideout to us.

The stripper distracting the gang member is a useful asset at this part of the mission.

Well, life is sometimes disappointing.

This is one of the occasions where Agent 47 needs to use brute force to accomplish his mission.

By giving Ivan the briefcase with the money, with the tracking device inside, Agent 47 will be able to track Jegorov's location.

Trivia

• The Warehouse with the money suitcase is selected at the start of the mission, you can locate it without placing the transmitter in the car by looking for the warehouse with dogs outside it, it's possible to do the deal with Ivan wearing the suit this way.
• The strip club's window says "Goedkoop opwinding" Dutch for "cheap arousal". Goedkoop is correct Dutch but as an adjective it should be spelled "Goedkope"
• The gang member outside the strip club actually has various voiced lines, some of which are insults in Dutch. They are difficult to trigger however as once you attempt getting access to the club, he will open fire at you while not having exhausted all of the voiced lines yet. This forces the player, should they desire hearing all the lines, to keep trying to open the door while under heavy close range fire from this gangster.
