**Storyline:**
A joint operation between the FBI and the MVD in Moscow results in the death of the younger brother of Azerbaijani mafia leader Terek Murad. Seeking revenge, Murad hires an international hitman known as “the Jackal” for $70 million to assassinate a prominent, yet unidentified, American target. Two weeks later, the MVD captures and interrogates one of Murad’s associates, Viktor Politovsky, in Porvoo, Finland, uncovering the assassination plot. The FBI and MVD suspect that FBI Director Donald Brown is the intended target.
The Jackal employs various disguises and stolen identities to prepare for the assassination. FBI Deputy Director Carter Preston and Russian Police Major Valentina Koslova seek assistance from imprisoned IRA sniper Declan Mulqueen, believing his former lover, fugitive ETA militant Isabella Zancona, can identify the Jackal. Mulqueen agrees to help in exchange for his release, U.S. citizenship, and safe haven for Zancona. Both Mulqueen and Zancona seek revenge on the Jackal, who previously wounded Zancona in Libya, causing her to miscarry their child. Zancona provides critical details, including the Jackal’s background as a U.S. Army Special Forces veteran with combat experience in El Salvador. She secretly gives Mulqueen access to a drop box containing a clean passport and $10,000 cash, but Mulqueen remains committed to assisting Preston.
Meanwhile, the Jackal travels to Montreal to collect a high-caliber weapon. He learns that hijackers are after it and kills one while evading the others. He enlists a small-time gunsmith, Ian Lamont, to build a control mount for the weapon, demanding full confidentiality and design specifications. When Lamont attempts to extort more money, the Jackal kills him during a live-fire test of the weapon.
