Wolfgang von Strucker

"You have an 88-millimeter automated cannon! How difficult is to shoot down one target?"

- Baron Strucker

Baron Wolfgang von Strucker was a German nobleman and officer of HYDRA during World War II.

Captain America: Super Soldier
Baron Wolfgang von Strucker was born into Prussian nobility with familial association to the secret society known as HYDRA. Ambitious, arrogant and harboring a particular distaste for the lower-class, Strucker quickly rose through HYDRA, becoming proficient in both combat and tactics. Intercepted documents suggest he is pursuing development of advanced weaponry known as the “Satan Claw” for personal use.

During World War II, in the mountains of Bavaria, Captain America encounters him in a tower where a radio dish controlling a powerful cannon is located. Captain America engages Strucker in combat and after a deadly battle, manages to defeat him. However the cannon loses control after the radio dish is destroyed and shoots down the aircraft transporting the Invaders and after they bail out the plane heads strait for the tower Strucker and Cap are in and Strucker in a last ditch attempt to take down Cap he charges at him which sends both Cap and Strucker flying off as the plane destroys there battleground. As Captain America and Baron Strucker free-fall off the tower, Baron Struck manages to knock out Captain America, and he was last seen laying on the ground unconscious. Later one of the Hydra personnel says that his recovery would take mounths.
