Yevgeny Borisovitch Volgin (エヴゲニー・ボリソヴィッチ・ヴォルギン) (Евгений Борисович Волгин), known as "Thunderbolt" in the West, is a Stalinist GRU colonel with a penchant for wanton brutality who attempts to seize control of the Soviet Union by overthrowing Nikita Khrushchev and installing Leonid Brezhnev and Alexei Kosygin in his place. Furthermore, he was a mastermind behind the Katyn Forest Massacre.[126] His body carries an electric charge of ten million volts. He uses it chiefly for fighting and for torture.[127] After he battles Naked Snake and EVA, both in and atop the Shagohod, it begins to rain. He is at first unafraid but is rapidly struck by a bolt of lightning.[128] Volgin is voiced by Kenji Utsumi in Japanese and Neil Ross in English.
