The International Contract Agency Agents, or the ICA Agents, are the name for a hit squad consisting of twelve agents who were 47's former colleagues that work for the International Contract Agency, led by their handler Jiao, and are minor antagonists in HITMAN III, appearing as the targets of its third mission "Apex Predator".
History[]
After the ICA discovered that Agent 47 and Diana Burnwood had betrayed them and defected to working with Lucas Grey and Olivia Hall, they sent agents out to kill all four. After Grey committed suicide to avoid being captured by CICADA mercenaries sent by Arthur Edwards and Burnwood disappeared, they tracked down Hall in Berlin. Eleven ICA agents including their leader Agent Montgomery and their handler Jiao, were sent to find and assassinate Hall. Hall managed to fight off temporarily and flee.
When Agent 47 arrived to rendezvous with Hall, the agents were ordered to kill him as well. 47, rather than fleeing, decides to send a message to the ICA by killing at least five agents, with their dropped earpieces helping 47 locate them. As the hit squad is considered to be an elite detachment of the ICA, Jiao becomes increasingly vocally dumbfounded as 47 picks them off one-by-one. After 47 was able to kill at least five of them, Jiao ordered a retreat. However 47 can still manage to kill the entire squad, especially those that attempt to retreat.
Soon after killing some or all of the agents of Jiao's top hit squad, Agent 47 leaked all of the ICA's data out to the public. Jiao and her other squads were presumably wiped out by 47 (which wasn't shown but assumed.)
Members[]
Jiao[]
Jiao is the handler of the ICA hit squad. She never appears in-person during the mission, but occasionally radios in to order the agents around or check in on them.
She has a British accent and judging by her name, she is likely of Chinese descent.
If 5 of her agents are killed, she will order her agents to retreat. Killing all agents will cause her to begrudgingly congratulate 47 over the earpiece.
Agent Montgomery[]
Agent Robert Montgomery is the leader of the ICA hit squad. He can be seen disguised as the Head of Security, accompanied by another non-ICA guard. He patrols around the club, asking staff for any information regarding Agent 47. He carries a DAK DTI. Killing him grants "The Leader" as a challenge.
During the mission, it is revealed that the owner of Club Hölle, Rolf Hirschmüller, is planning to meet Agent Montgomery. If Agent 47 grabs his disguise, he can arrange the meeting. Agent Montgomery sees through the disguise, and decides to bring four other Agents for an ambush. After confronting Agent 47, he will monologue before engaging in a firefight.
Agent Banner[]
Agent Banner is an agent led by Agent Montgomery. He can be seen disguised as tech, overlooking the dance floor on a walkway, regularly visited by Agent Montgomery. He carries a DAK DTI and Lethal Syringe. Killing him grants 'The Wall' as a challenge. He is one of five ICA Agents to confront Agent 47 in Hirschmüller's office.
During the mission, it is revealed that the light setup for the tree is poorly made, and Agent 47 could sabotage it. Later, he can disguise himself as one of the DJ's, and deliver a climax, killing Agent Banner, and possibly Agent Montgomery via electrocution.
Agent Tremaine[]
Agent Tremaine is an agent led by Agent Montgomery. He can be seen disguised as a biker, in the upper floors of the biker hangout, where he will be drinking, dis-assembling and re-assembling a handgun, smoking, and looking for Agent 47 with a pair of binoculars. He carries an ICA SMG Raptor Covert, a Bartoli Woodsman Hunting rifle, and the key to the Radio Tower. Killing him grants "The Sniper" as a challenge.
If Agent 47 triggers the alarms on the tower or gets spotted, Agent Tremaine will ready his Sniper and try to take him out from afar, sending two ordinary guards in the process. From this point on, Agent Tremaine will open fire on 47 if he is spotted, regardless of distance.
Agent Thames[]
Agent Thames is an agent led by Agent Montgomery. He can be disguised as a Club Crew member, patrolling around the construction equipment. where he will occasionally come over to two guards and threaten them. He carries a DAK DTI and ICA Remote Audio Distraction MKIII. Killing him grants "The Professional" as a challenge.
Agent 47 can steal a fuse cell and power up the crane, and Agent Thames will reveal his weakness of distractions by investigating the light on the crane arm, unaware that he is standing right under the large cylinder, which Agent 47 can drop on him.

Trivia[]
- Agents Davenport and Swan were previously mentioned by Mark Faba as agents who failed to kill him and in the "Overachievers" side story as the ICA's second best hitmen.
- The agents and Noel Crest are the only armed targets in HITMAN III.
- Jiao and the agents (except for Agent Montgomery) are only known by their surnames.
- Due to all of the agents' fates being player-determined in "Apex Predator", they do not appear in one of the hallucinations from the final mission "Untouchable" where all of the main story targets that Agent 47 had killed throughout the World of Assassination trilogy crowd the latter.
- It is unknown if the hit squad had any connection to 47 prior to 47's second betrayal of the ICA, but Agent Montgomery claims to have never met 47.
- 5 of the agents can be comedically taken out via explosions, as the first 4 agents share the dangerous habit of smoking next to flammable objects, while a non-ICA guard who DOES smoke is periodically visited by the fifth hitman.
