Same events as the movie First Blood. Rambo has escaped custody and then raped Teasle and his men in the woods. Instead of calling in the National guard, they authorities call in Agent 47 to kill/capture Rambo.
Agent 47 is armed with his Dragunov sniper rifle, an M-16, an M-60 and his twin .45's. He is thoroughly briefed on Rambo's training. He also frag grenades, concussion grenades and flashbangs.
Rambo is armed with a Dragunov sniper rifle, an M-16, an M-60 and two .45's. He also frag grenades, concussion grenades and flashbangs.
Unlimited ammo for both.
Rambo knows he is being hunted by one highly skilled man, nothing more.
47 never had any feats in a forest environment. Though if the fight ended up in the town like at the end of First Blood, I can't see why 47 just wouldn't snipe him.
The movie version of Hitman was terrible though. So yeah it's pretty even.
Is that right now? Because Rambo was like in the Vietnam war and stuff. Not to mention Trautman's quote directly from the movie:
"You don't seem to want to accept the fact you're dealing with an expert in guerrilla warfare, with a man who's the best, with guns, with knives, with his bare hands. A man who's been trained to ignore pain, ignore weather, to live off the land, to eat things that would make a billy goat puke. In Vietnam his job was to dispose of enemy personnel. To kill! Period! Win by attrition. Well Rambo was the best."
But I guess Trautman was full of poo, eh?
Actually it doesn't. Not even close. What did Rambo do after jumping off a cliff and landing hundreds of feet below? He took out a chopper with a rock. Your move.
I am now that I watched First Blood again. Rambo, in the forest/jungle, becomes the forest/jungle. Hell, Mitch was right on top of Rambo and didn't even see him FFS. 47 is just outmatched here.
Mitch wasn't a soldier, but a ordinary cop, if he had seen him it would have outspelled for us just how bad Rambo was at blending in with the land, if a freaking streetcop could locate him.
And? Point is that he was right among them at all times and they never realized it. He took them all out and they only saw him when he allowed it. Much like this:
In an urban scenario, yeah, 47 has the upper hand. But in the forest? He has no chance.
And the point is that there is a big difference between fooling a bunch of cops, that thinks they are chasing a fugitive, while in reality a ex commando, contrast that too a elite assassin that knows what he is dealing with, in every detail. Furthermore lets not forget that Rambo has been caught and torturered before, while he is excellent at hiding, it doesn't mean he becomes invisible and vanish from the face of the earth when he goes guerilla mode.

Which is why 47 will wait in the town for Rambo to till inevitably continue his final assault. And there he will die.
Film 47 has ways to deal with targets in foreign environments as well.....
He can attach a bomb to a unwilling civilian and send him in under threat of family/personal safety. Once the man is in the vacinity of Rambo he blows them up.
47 doesn't take chances. He plans many moves ahead. Unlike Rambo who dives in and simply minces his enemies. But past Rambo films has proven that luck can run short.

It doesn't matter, 47 can set the wood on fire, or make it appear as if he is torturing Trutman etc. There are enough ways for 47 to lure Rambo away from his environment.
I'm talking about his captivity and torture shown in flashback in the first film during the vietnam war, do you think he intended to be captured there as well? There he was fighting Guerillas just as adept as using the environment as he himself was.
So 47 just sets the woods on fire and kills Rambo, eh? Kinda like Rambo set the bushes on fire and killed the VC, eh? Rambo actually did what you said 47 would do. If anything, he'll lure 47 into a false sense of security then fry his ass.
