Alexi Koslov is a Rocket Engineer, who befriended Steve Austin when the Soviet government invited the crew of Apollo 19 to Moscow. Later, Koslov is sent to the Bahamas, where arms dealer Arlen Findletter claims to offer both Russian and American missiles for sale. Koslov and Katrina Volana are tasked with determining if Findletter possesses the missiles, and if so to do something about the threat. When Steve Austin arrives in Paradise Cay, Koslov knows something is afoot, but cannot believe Steve has been duped by his own government, leading to an unfortunate conversation.
