Kenneth Baker

Kenneth Baker was the president of ArmsTech, one of the leading manufacturers of the arms industry. His company ininiated the development of Metal Gear REX for the purpose of recovering financial losses his company suffered (a result of several factors, including losing projects to rival companies and reduction in SDI spending). He bribed the DARPA Chief Donald Anderson to support the project. However, during a planned field exercise of REX in the Nuclear Disposal Facility on Shadow Moses Island, Baker was taken hostage during Liquid Snake's takeover.

During his captivity, he hides the optical disk containing REX data and gives the PAL card to Meryl Silverburgh, a fellow prisoner. He is tortured by Ocelot and has his right arm broken during the interrogation. Baker is wired to a boobytrap of C4 explosives while Solid Snake battles Ocelot, but is saved by the Ninja. Ultimately, Baker dies after being exposed to the FOXDIE program by coming into contact with Snake.
