Illustration of a male operator in a black gas mask and dark hood, an EMP grenade launcher on his shoulder, lit by a blue-white electrical flash as a reinforced wall ahead of him sparks and shorts out — Original illustrationOur own composition of the operator, drawn from the character art the publisher publishes for him: the black gas mask with its round lenses and front filter, the dark navy hood, the dark blue vest with its patch pockets, the Union Jack patch on the left upper arm, the black strapping wound around the right arm, the bulky EMP grenade launcher carried on the shoulder and the antenna-topped device on his back. The electrical flash and the reinforced wall are our own scene rather than a location in the game. This is drawn artwork, not a screenshot of the actual game, and not a photograph of a real person.

The Unique Ability

E.G.S. Disruptor (Electronic Gear Scanner Disruptor) is this operator's unique ability. What it does:

Thatcher's E.G.S. Disruptor detects enemy electronic devices through obstructions and disables them with an EMP blast, which is what opens a reinforced wall for the breacher behind him.

Loadout

The publisher lists the operator's weapons and gadgets as four groups. Two primary weapons and two secondary weapons are carried as alternatives, and the two gadgets are chosen before the round:

Category	Item
Primary Weapon	AR33 — ASSAULT RIFLE
Primary Weapon	L85A2 — ASSAULT RIFLE
Primary Weapon	M590A1 — SHOTGUN
Primary Weapon	PMR90A2
Secondary Weapon	P226 Mk 25 — HANDGUN
Gadget	Breach Charge
Gadget	Claymore
Unique Ability	E.G.S. Disruptor (Electronic Gear Scanner Disruptor)

Loadout: the publisher's own operator page, read October 12, 2026. A weapon's type is the publisher's own label for it. Where the publisher lists no type beside an item, none is shown rather than one being supplied.

The Record Fields

The publisher publishes a biography for each operator, and this page carries its record fields — real name, date of birth and place of birth — in the table at the top. The publisher's page carries a written biography and a psychological report beside these record fields. They are the publisher's own narrative text, so this page carries the record fields and links to the source for the rest.

Update Rule

Abilities and ratings change with balance patches, and this page tracks the publisher's own operator page rather than trying to keep pace with every adjustment. The date at the top records when that page was read, not when the game last changed. If a value here disagrees with the publisher's page, the publisher's value is correct and this page is out of date.
