Can Gunther be defeated at the first confrontation?

After getting out of train station, I happen to confront Gunther (surrounded by UNATCO) with the decisions of surrender or fight.

I didn't have enough of my arsenal, one missile and one LAM grenade. I sometimes die by shooting the missile and by the looks feels as if he didn't get a scratch...

Can he be defeated in the named scene?


Solution 1:

No, the encounter with Gunther in battery park is one of the few instances, where you cannot kill a NPC. Gunther is invincible in this situation and the story will only progress once he got you.
