Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is the newest game out by Infinity Ward® and the squeal to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. The game is taking place about five years after the end of Modern Warfare 1, where despite the efforts of Marine Force Recon and the SAS (Special Air Service), the Ultranationalists ultimately seize control of Russia and declare Imran Zakhaev a hero and martyr. Imran Zakhaev begins to preach consistently about how they are the world power and can take over any country, which leads to numerous attacks in Europe, and where terrorist strike, America will be there to control the situation.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 starts off in Afghanistan where you instantly meet the main character, the first character you play, U.S. Army Ranger Private First Class Joseph Allen. P.F.C. Allen is helping prevent the city being taken over by the insurgents, where he impresses Lieutenant General Shepherd with his combat skills and it gets him recruited into Task Force 141, an elite, multi-national counter-terrorism unit under Shepherd's command. Meanwhile, two other members of Task Force 141, Captain John "Soap" MacTavish and Sergeant Gary "Roach" Sanderson, scale a mountain of the Tian Shan to infiltrate an airbase in Kazakhstan to recover a lost ACS (Aerial Common Sensor, a reconnaissance aircraft airframe for the United States Army and Navy) module from a downed satellite.
Allen is later sent on an undercover mission in Russia for the CIA under the alias of "Alexei Borodin." Allen joins Makarov in a massacre of civilians at the Zakhaev International Airport in Moscow. It is soon revealed at the conclusion of the attack that Makarov is aware of Allen's true identity and before leaving, kills him to expose his identity as an American, leading the Russian police to believe that America was responsible for the attack. the Americans get highly offended by the whole situation, and they take their anger to the public which pretty much puts a bulls eye on the back of Americans. The Russians begin attacks close to Washington D.C. which leads to all hell breaking loose.
