"The Hunt for Red October" is set in the middle of the cold war between the USSR and the US. A senior and well respected Russian Sub commander, Marco Ramius, and his handpicked crew use a state of the art nuclear submarine that runs nearly undetectable by modern sonar to defect to the United States.

In the film's climax Captain Ramius and CIA analyst Jack Ryan join together to neutralize a KGB saboteur who is trying to foil the defection plot by igniting a missile and incinerating the ship. Ramius instructs Ryan to be careful discharging his firearm in the hold of Red October's missile room, but the saboteur is not as reserved in his discretion to shoot, firing and missing numerous times at Ryan and Ramius.

Answer: The Sum of All Fears

"The Sum of All Fears" centers on a young Jack Ryan who is at this point of the Clancy timeline a junior analyst for the CIA. The plot of the film revolves around an Eastern European terrorist group's plot to detonate a nuclear device at a sporting event in Baltimore in an effort to create a war between the US and Russia. Ryan and his superior, CIA Director William Cabot, are on a mission to inspect a Russian nuclear weapon facility.

While in country, they are invited to the Kremlin to meet with newly elected Russian Federation President Alexander Nemerov. President Nemerov uses this analogy to suggest that the US keep out of the current Russian-Chechen crisis.

A senior and well respected Russian Sub commander, Marco Ramius, and his handpicked crew use a state of the art nuclear submarine that runs nearly undetectable by modern sonar to defect to the United States.

This plot is unknown to US officials who are unsure of this rouge submarine's intentions and must decide whether or not to seek and destroy Red October or to assist her attempt to evade her Soviet pursuers to safe harbor in America.

After arguing a theory that the Red October's crew's intent is indeed to defect and not to attack to a group of high level military officers and security officials, CIA analyst Jack Ryan is reluctantly sent on a mission to prove his theory correct.

This mission will bring him right to the front of the cold war and will put his life in the hands of the very men he believes to be defectors.

Answer: The Hunt for Red October

"The Hunt for Red October" is set in the middle of the cold war between the USSR and the US. A senior and well respected Russian Sub commander, Marco Ramius, and his handpicked crew use a state of the art nuclear submarine that runs nearly undetectable by modern sonar to defect to the United States. Determined to stop the senior officers from defecting and, probably more importantly, prevent the Red October and her cutting edge propulsion technology to get into US hands, a KGB agent planted among the crew by Moscow attempts to assassinate Ramius. Once it is clear that the senior officers have gone rouge against the Soviet government the agent follows his protocol and shoots at Ramius while commanding on the bridge of the submarine.

It was the First Officer Vasili Borodin who jumped in front of the bullet meant for the Captain and thus sacrificing himself and his dream of living in Montana. Borodin's final words were, "I would have liked to have seen Montana".
