- Expert Combatant: As a former member of Russian intelligence agencies and HYDRA, Orlov had received an intensive military training which gave him incredible combat proficiency. As such, he was able to briefly hold his own while simultaneously fighting Alphonso Mackenzie and Melinda May LMD, even wounding the latter, during a Watchdogs ambush on Jeffrey Mace, before being overpowered by the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents.
- Acrobat: During the fight, Orlov performed acrobatic maneuvers to dodge attacks from Alphonso Mackenzie and Melinda May LMD. One of these was a swinging shovel by May in order to swipe Orlov's legs. He did a full flip over the shovel and used the weapon against her.

Weapons[]
- SIG Sauer P228: Orlov used his handgun to threaten Jeffrey Mace when he tried to negotiate Orlov's surrender with a bluff, but Orlov and his men ended up opening fire on him, who was only saved because Coulson used his Energy Shield to protect him.
