General Vladimir Zhupikov was the last Russian general encountered by 47. He was killed by 47 himself whilst attending a party at the German Embassy.
Though surname Zhupikov = Жупиков does exist, Russian localization replaced it with more frequent Zubkov = Зубков.
Background[]
Hitman 2: Silent Assassin[]
Fearing for his life, Zhupikov defected to Germany in order to gain political asylum there. He also took with him a missile guidance system, which he intended to sell to the highest bidder after he arrived in Germany.
47 assassinated Zhupikov and recovered the guidance system, despite an attempt by a Spetsnaz agent to claim the system for his own superiors.
What's in Zhupikov's briefcase was cash and a letter from Japan which linked to Yakuza boss, Masahiro Hayamoto.
Trivia[]
- The General has a heart problem due to his excessive drinking and smoking requiring him to go to the bathroom more often.
- He is left-handed
- The General engages in a flirtatious behavior with the Maid in one of the upstairs room sometimes spanking her on the buttocks.
- He has a habit of stopping waiters wherever he encounters them and taking away wine cocktails which are meant for the party guests. This could be explained because of his alcoholism.
