A mercenary recruitable from A.I.M.. First appears in Jagged Alliance 2.
Official description
"Hungarian-born Unger is part of a new breed of explosive experts. He learned most of his trade the safe way--in a classroom. His studies included the theory behind incendiary devices, and the technical aspects of electronics and circuitry. Although he also took locksmith and swimming courses, he didn't do well in the latter." - A.I.M. Dossier

Notes
- Nonswimmer
- Barry is probably a wise choice at initial stage of the game because of relatively low hiring cost. His wisdom compensates for laking of experience level and can boost his markmanship points after getting through to some battles.
- In V 1.13 he is an excellent choice. His cost is very low and he has Engineer, greatly boosting the speed of repairs and skill in mechanical tasks. High speed repairs and high wisdom make his relatively low starting mechanical skill a quickly forgotten issue.
- It is not known whether its a Barry is named after the last husband of Lynne Frederick.
