He was transferred to Omega Group to assist with military operations, including a dimensional breach in Laos in 1984. Ravenov and his men secured the site and performed an experiment on behalf of Aleksandra Valentina, causing Wei to die and reviving as a zombie. However, the experiment failed, leading to Ravenov's actions being omitted from his official report. Ravenov later contacted rogue-BND agent Samantha Maxis, who had plans to control bridges between the Dark Aether and their world, collect and use Aetherium as an energy source to win the Cold War. However, Samantha's plans were discovered by Omega Group, leading to her capture and subsequent capture by Dr. William Peck. Ravenov informed Grigori Weaver about Maxis' capture, leading to Operation Lost Property being formed by Requiem senior staff. Ravenov assisted a Requiem strike-team in rescuing Maxis and defeating the massive Orda at Outpost 25. In November 1984, Maxis established a secure communication line with Requiem's Strike Team, aided by Ravenov and Elizabeth Grey. They thwarted Operatsiya Inversiya and successfully launched the warheads. However, the KGB discovered Ravenov's betrayal and stripped him of his rank. After Operation Excision, a group of Omega scientists defected to Requiem, but were killed by Dr. Hugo Jager. Ravenov was blacklisted by the CIA and later revealed information about Operatsiya Izbavitel in the Zakarpatska Oblast. He assisted in Operation First Domino and became a ghost in the shell. In the years that followed Operation First Domino, Ravenov would essentially be a ghost in the shell, with the new Russian government having no record of him existing. In the 21st century, Ravenov was contacted by CIA Station Chief Kate Laswell about an incident related to Aetherium at an American security checkpoint. Ravenov later teamed up with Task Force 141 Sergeant Johnny "Soap" MacTavish to carry out Operation Deadbolt.

Setting=The fictional region of Zaravan, in the fictional peninsula Urzikstan, on the eastern border of the Black Sea located in the Caucasus Region in Western Asia, bordering the United Republic of Adal to the north and northwest, the Russian Federation to the northeast, and Georgia to the east and southeast. The capital is Sakhra where the Embassy of the United States is located. The climate is mostly arid.

In 2021, Victor Zakhaev discovered a secret 1980s war between Requiem and Omega Group over Aetherium. He hired Terminus Outcomes and headed to Zaravan with Jack Fletcher. After discovering weapons-grade Aetherium, Zakhaev threw it at local police, causing them to turn into zombies and initiating an outbreak from the Dark Aether. The CIA created Operation Deadbolt to contain the outbreak and establish an Exclusion Zone around Zaravan.

Special Security Officer Selma Greene was tasked with a response unit for Deadbolt, which included Sergei Ravenov, a former Spetsnaz captain with experience in undead incursions. Three weeks after the outbreak began, Deadbolt added additional members, including Captain Amy Fang, who handles infiltration and exfiltration; Captain Lucas "Luke" Dobbs, who provides drone reconnaissance; Color Sergeant Rupinder "Roops" Kapoor, who provides mechanical expertise; Corporal Krystal Miller, who handles requisitions; Doctor Hugo Barrera, who studies Dark Aether creatures and phenomena; and Sergeant Johnny "Soap" MacTavish, who handles field operations. A strike team of Operators was also employed to assist Deadbolt members in the Zaravan exclusion zone. After a briefing from Laswell, the strike team deployed in the zombie infested Zaravan for the first time.

Aetherium, also known as Exo-Element 1 or Vogelium, is a powerful and dangerous element originating from the Dark Aether, utilized by military and scientific groups for technological and weaponry purposes.

Terminus Outcomes, founded in 2011 by Jack Fletcher, is a leading private military company headquartered in Brunei, with training facilities in Turkmenistan, Congo, and Uganda. Headquartered in Brunei, it employs the latest weaponry and technology, rivaling major NATO militaries' training.
