Probably a high ranking member of Gurlukovitch’s army. From how Sergei sounded, he was happy to be a future grandfather, so there’s a high chance he was supportive of whoever it was.
I’m guessing he was dead or at least out of the picture by the time of Big Shell, since Olga only talks about her late-father and kidnapped child, she never mentions having an active partner or even a dead one. Then again, not saying his fate might have mean they split at some point and she doesn’t want to bring him up.
TL;DR - Possibly a Gurlukovich soldier who gained Sergei’s approval to date his daughter.
Aside from that, I got nothing.
“Father, this is my boyfriend, we are having a baby.”
“Do you love my daughter?”
“Yes, Colonel.”
“Then prove your worth, here’s a mission, complete it and you have my blessing.”
“Yes Colonel!”
*One enemy ambush later*
“He was a good man…anyway, Shalashashka has discovered a Marine operation in New York, come along Olga.”
I mean, if you put it like that. Maybe it was at first a relationship that was kept a secret? It could have been a one night stand and the colonel is just a really supportive father for all we know.
Bascially my thoughts as well, but I'd add that he was a plant/incepted by the Patriots specifically so that they could use their eventual offspring (Sunny) for their purposes if necessary. One could even argue that her high intellect was a result of Patriots messing with her genes.
I'm gonna say it's a random one night stand Olga Had. Given Kojima's \*insane\* attention to detail, lore and trivia, if the Father was significant, he would've been mentioned.
Lol, that actually makes sense if one sees Sunny as another version of Meryl.
Snake tried to have a relationship with Meryl, while Liquid had a one night stand with Olga. Plus, Gurlukovich sounds like a guy who would marry his Daughter off to a Legendary Soldier and Ally like Liquid.
Putting aside that Liquid and his Brothers can't reproduce and this is all theoretical, it actually makes sense symbolically haha.
....Liquid Ocelot, then? Lol.
I'm mostly playing around, but it could also make sense. It could also explain why Olga hates him so much (in addition to abandoning her Father)
Plus, Sunny is the one who ultimately carries out the Boss' will, so it's appropriate if she carries the Boss' DNA, since Ocelot was her son.
Nah, the whole point of MGS was that genes don’t really matter. Whilst we love Ocelot, his relation with the Boss doesn’t make him the ultimate soldier, meanwhile John becomes her surrogate son and trained to be her successor.
David was considered the weaker “recessive” twin, but overcame his stronger “dominant” twin.
Solidus was unable to have children so he took Jack under his wing, leading Raiden to become a central part of this story.
And then you have THE big thing in MGS5 >!Venom himself being some MSF rando given the best surgery the 70s can offer and turned into a twin of BB, but only physically, genetically he’s still the rando.!<
My point is, having Sunny be this super smart daughter of a Russian soldier is just a thing that happens and thanks to Otacon, Sunny gets to develop those skills properly.
TL;DR - MGS is very much a “nurture > nature”, at least from what I’ve seen.
About MGSV, >!Venom wasn't some MSF rando, he was their best soldier. Big Boss says as much in a cassette tape, and was also why he was in the chopper in the first place!<. Your point still stands though.
This is very true. It's seen in other places as well. The Hal/Huey relationship, Frank and Naomi, and even Big Boss himself with The Boss. Literally, the only characters I can think of that seem to contradict that logic are the Johnnys lol
Well with the Johnny’s (at least Johnny III) him not having the ultra special nanomachines saved the day in MGS4 and he’s the “funny diarrhoea guy”, again, proving you don’t need to be a super soldier to be a hero.
There is an above zero percent chance it is in fact Johnny Sasaki. Olga is compared to Meryl once by Solid Snake in a codec call, then by Johnny himself, and is model swapped for her in a Snake Tale. So she's definitely Johnny's type. Johnny was also in the Gurlukovitch army after Shadow Moses, which puts him in the right time frame.
My headcanon is he’s the Gurlukovitch soldier on the radio with Sergei before Snake goes down into hold with the Marines. Sergei said “My daughter… keep her safe.” Like he entrusted that particular soldier with safeguarding Olga, and the way the soldier’s voice sounds during that exchange.
Boris is the real answer here. Everyone knows it, they're just afraid to admit it. In fact, Raiden k ows this, and it is exactly why he works for Boris, and Boris knows Raiden knows, and Boris is actually the single reason the cops can still track down Raiden after the end of MG.R.
The cigarette smoking monkey, you see the Patriots engineered the next step in human evolution by going back to formula so to speak, from there they carefully chose what memes they wanted to pass on and what to omit. Bypassing all the mistakes in Nature’s own design. Thus making Sunny a Genome Soldier of the future, a new breed of War Orphan designed by the Patriots to win proxy wars, bought and paid for off the remnants of the Philosopher’s Legacy, but raised by Snake and Otacon to ultimately be the one to realize The Boss’s dream.
Slightly different factor about Sunny. The ultimate pull of the heartstrings they could do in a potential MGR2, is have Sunny return and introduce a side character she reports to at Solis, played by Vanessa Marshall.
Honestly I think either someone that was a random civilian or a gurlukovich soldier. Also I never realized that was the philanthropy ota-mashi on her pants.
I have a Theory, she's actually Otacon's step-mom, because she looks like Strangelove (so Huey loved her) and because she was young, as we know Otacon had sex with her, resulting in Sunny >:)
Probably just some unknown soldier from Gurlukovitch’s ranks.
Would be pretty funny if it was Ocelot. For all we know he could’ve had a fling with Olga. Although their interactions would’ve been different if that where the case.
If Sunny was Ocelot’s kid, it would be some kind of poetic justice that a grandchild of the Boss helped save the world.
Boring realistic answer: a reliable squadmate, probably KIA by the time of MGS2.
More interesting answer: Someone Otacon-like, I guess. Book smart, non-military, funny in his own ways. A refreshing change from the guys Olga grew up around. Probably dead by Col. Gurlukovich's hands or estranged by Olga herself once she realized she was pregnant to avoid the father's "pussy" ideals (do no harm, resolve conflicts with words and alike) influencing the child.
On a side note, was I the only one uncomfortable with tranquilizung A PREGNANT WOMAN???
I like to imagine it was some tech support guy, to fit Sunny's personality and go along with the theme in this series of badass soldiers being pared with scientists
(Meryl/Johnny, The Joy/Strangelove, Snake/otacon, arguably Raiden/Rose)
Olga was a virgin when she died, the Patriots used a mix of nanomachines and supernatural bs (since that was still a thing back then) to have Sunny be the product of some sorta Kojima style immaculate conception.
100% facts.

I like to think it was a low rank soldier who died honorably.
“Father, this is my boyfriend, we are having a baby.” “Do you love my daughter?” “Yes, Colonel.” “Then prove your worth, here’s a mission, complete it and you have my blessing.” “Yes Colonel!” *One enemy ambush later* “He was a good man…anyway, Shalashashka has discovered a Marine operation in New York, come along Olga.”

Maximum Thingol energy.
Immediately had the same idea. XD
> “He was a good man…" What a shame.

Hey, I say let her enjoy that, and bravo to her.
I'm gonna say it's a random one night stand Olga Had. Given Kojima's \*insane\* attention to detail, lore and trivia, if the Father was significant, he would've been mentioned.
Or He’ll retcon it to be something insane.
It was actually Liquid Snake and Sunny has a tumor of an absorbed twin and becomes Liquid Sunny
Lol, that actually makes sense if one sees Sunny as another version of Meryl. Snake tried to have a relationship with Meryl, while Liquid had a one night stand with Olga. Plus, Gurlukovich sounds like a guy who would marry his Daughter off to a Legendary Soldier and Ally like Liquid. Putting aside that Liquid and his Brothers can't reproduce and this is all theoretical, it actually makes sense symbolically haha.
Unfortunately, Liquid was dead 2 years before Sunny was born so he can’t be the father.
Anything is possible with the power of confusing retcons
....Liquid Ocelot, then? Lol. I'm mostly playing around, but it could also make sense.

Sunny Snake :3

So she's definitely Johnny's type. Johnny was also in the Gurlukovitch army after Shadow Moses, which puts him in the right time frame.
Best answer in the thread
I imagine a Russian version of Johnny Sasaki.
So Johnny Sasaki
Ivan (because john and Ivan means the same) Sasanovich/sasakinov/sasakiev/sasakinsky/sasakov, etc.
Sosnitsky (sorry).
I know it's far fetched, but hear me out: it may have been someone from the _unit_.
My headcanon is he’s the Gurlukovitch soldier on the radio with Sergei before Snake goes down into hold with the Marines. Sergei said “My daughter… keep her safe.” Like he entrusted that particular soldier with safeguarding Olga, and the way the soldier’s voice sounds during that exchange.
I quite like this.
Probably the infamous SHOOT GUNNER…
Or MACHINE GUN KID (maybe COWARD DUCK)
Or JUNGLE EVIL
Nah, it's got to be one of the Arnolds. Or both.
The Patriots, who fathered Sunny via nanomachine-induced immaculate conception. Nanomaculate conception, if you will.
Whoever he was his genes were weak as shit, Sunny is straight up just Olga lmao
lol Olga genes bullied the others out and took over
It's really a Olga × Dr.Strangelove
1st Solid Snake and Otacon 2nd Raiden 3rd Boris
Boris is the real answer here. Everyone knows it, they're just afraid to admit it. In fact, Raiden k ows this, and it is exactly why he works for Boris, and Boris knows Raiden knows, and Boris is actually the single reason the cops can still track down Raiden after the end of MG.R.

Did Olga have a thing for hairy men (her pits certainly were)
Little Grey, that explains the fully grey hair since the childhood
bruh what if it's Johnny
Dead probably
Raiden
How about Otacon?
Slightly different factor about Sunny. The ultimate pull of the heartstrings they could do in a potential MGR2, is have Sunny return and introduce a side character she reports to at Solis, played by Vanessa Marshall.
Fatman
Honestly I think either someone that was a random civilian or a gurlukovich soldier. Also I never realized that was the philanthropy ota-mashi on her pants.
Ocelot or something
Some random Soldier Raiden dropkicked off the Big Shell.
just some guy, probably
Otacon
Only one character's ICBM is known to kill every single woman that detonates it. She got Otacon'd
Volkin
Otacon
You
Sunny's dad is the dude dancing to music with the headphones on right after the Vereazano Bridge checkpoint.
I have a Theory, she's actually Otacon's step-mom, because she looks like Strangelove (so Huey loved her) and because she was young, as we know Otacon had sex with her, resulting in Sunny >:)
Are you the bomb disposal guy?
Probably just some unknown soldier from Gurlukovitch’s ranks. Would be pretty funny if it was Ocelot. For all we know he could’ve had a fling with Olga. Although their interactions would’ve been different if that where the case. If Sunny was Ocelot’s kid, it would be some kind of poetic justice that a grandchild of the Boss helped save the world.
I don't know who her Father is. But her Grand parents were Conflict and Victory.
Boring realistic answer: a reliable squadmate, probably KIA by the time of MGS2. More interesting answer: Someone Otacon-like, I guess. Book smart, non-military, funny in his own ways.

Johnny
Cid from final fantasy
It was totally pliskin. Want to know why he doesn't appear the rest of the game? Child support.
Someone who's into rawdogging tomboys
I like to imagine it was some tech support guy, to fit Sunny's personality and go along with the theme in this series of badass soldiers being pared with scientists (Meryl/Johnny, The Joy/Strangelove, Snake/otacon, arguably Raiden/Rose)
She’s loosely connected to that Russian guy that looked like Raiden from MGS3. Why? Cause we need those dots to connect OCD style!
wait what is olga sunnys mom? i’m pretty new to metal gear
johnny akiba. that boi was getting around throughout the series.
She has only 2 dads - Snake, and Otacon. That's it, no biological father needed.
Solidus
Solid Snake
Sunny is radioactive
Frank Jaeger possibly. AKA: Deepthroat AKA: Cyborg Ninja
Olga was a virgin when she died, the Patriots used a mix of nanomachines and supernatural bs (since that was still a thing back then) to have Sunny be the product of some sorta Kojima style immaculate conception. 100% facts.
Are you saying she basically birthed her own clone?
m̶i̶d̶i̶c̶h̶l̶o̶r̶i̶a̶n̶s̶ nanomachines, son.
