"Mayday" is the code name given to the presidential plane hijack attempt. Zenya Kurtarov, an FSO agent, on the plane with the Russian President, Vladimir Putin, speaking to his daughter about the peace conference in Hamburg.
Turbulence[]
Kurtarov, one of the President's bodyguards on his protection detail, entered a room with President Putin, who was with a group of men discussing the peace he wanted to create with the west. As President Putin was arguing with one of his advisers, he was interrupted by muffled gunfire; at this point the plane was attacked by hijackers, in an attempt to capture the President.
The President hit the floor with agents covering him, and Kurtarov was tasked with defending him. Three hijackers assaulted the room, but Tarkovshy and Kurtarov dispatched them in close-quarters combat with their service pistols, the MP-443 Grach. The agents started to move the President to the plane's safe room. They moved through the plane's interior, and as they neared a staircase which was the battle between agents and hijackers, the plane stalled, sending it plummeting towards the ground. This put the inside of the plane in a temporary state of zero gravity in which Kurtarov and the other agents frequently smashed into overhead compartments. During this period of no gravity, the agent were able eliminate the hostiles.
After clearing the room of all the hijackers, the agents moved downstairs, and fought their way through the kitchen, the operations room, and the cargo bay to rescue Katerina Tikhonova, the president's daughter. The FSO team started to move the President and his daughter to the safe room, but before they could do so, the plane was forced to make an emergency landing. As hijackers poured in to engage the agents, the plane crashed into the ground. The force of the crash tore the plane in two, and the hijackers were still attempting to kill the agents when the portion of the plane they were in hit an air control tower. One agent was killed when he fell from the plane to his death, and an engine from the plane hurtled through the air, striking the portion of the plane Kurtarov was in, knocking her out.
Eye of the Storm[]
Tarkovshyn draghed Kurtarov onto his feet, and the two stumbled out of the wreckage. After exiting the remains of the plane, the agents searched for the now missing President. Moving past wounded agents and hijackers, they approached a hangar. Hijackers in armored vehicles started to fill the area, and the agents were forced to use wreckage and luggage as cover. Once the security team secured the President, a helicopter landed to evacuate the President. After opening the door to the helicopter, Kurtarov discovered that it belonged to the terrorist leader, who then proceeded to shoot her, as well as Tarkovshyn, and captured the President. Kurtarov and Tarkovshyn fell to the ground, the terrorist leader effectively killing Tarkovshyn with another shot. While Kurtarov was lying on the ground, wounded, she overheard a conversation between the terrorist leader and President Putin.
The terrorist leader demanded the launch codes to secure his dominion over Russia, thus turning the tide against the West. However, the President refused to give up the launch codes, instead calling the terrorist a madman. Furious with his stance, the terrorist leader ordered his men to find Katerina Tikhonova. As the terrorists got Putin onto the helicopter, Kurtarov reached for Alexei's pistol and killed the Ukrainian soldiers, rescuing the president.
