Afghanistan and Actual Death
While Woods, Mason, Jason Hudson and Tian Zhao are present in a Mujahideen compound to meet with the insurgent leader, Mullah Rahmaan, Kravchenko leads a Soviet assault on the base to wipe out the fighters in the local area. Commanding the battle from within a large tank and favoring the use of brute force and superior numbers to overwhelm his opponents, Kravchenko eventually takes to the front lines when his forces begin to lose ground due to the efforts of the CIA operatives.

The Mujahideen lead a suicidal barrage on horse back towards the tank, which is decimated by Kravchenko's tank and several other armored vehicles. When Woods saw Mason stunned and unable to walk, he assisted Mason. The ploy grants Mason time to climb onto the tank with a mortar shell in an effort to destroy it. When Kravchenko spots his old enemy, he exits to meet Mason and punches him as he attempted to throw the mortar shell into the interior of the tank. He prepared to engage Mason in a hand-to-hand combat fight on top of the tank, but the battle was brutally short due to Kravchenko's old age slowing him down more than it had in Vietnam twenty years prior.

Mason manages to stun Kravchenko with several blows to the head and quickly throw the mortar shell inside the tank, causing it to explode from within and throwing Mason and Kravchenko to the ground. His programming once again returning and demanding he kill Kravchenko, Mason began to strangle the Colonel with the intent to finish him off before Woods arrived and knocked Kravchenko out with the stock of his AK-47, capturing him for interrogation.

During his imprisonment and interrogation by the Mujahideen, Hudson, Woods and Mason, he refused to disclose any information regarding his wealthy client, Raul Menendez; after Woods promises him a quick death, Kravchenko eventually concedes by telling him that he supplied Mendendez with an arsenal of weaponry. Kravchenko then ended with a smug comment suggesting that they may be a potential mole within the CIA; a notion which Hudson believes is proprosterous. The interrogation concludes with Woods executing Kravchenko and the Mujahideen betraying the CIA team as a result of Kravchenko's execution when Menendez caught wind of the Colonel's fate.
