A few countries have recently shown interest in purchasing Moscow's infantry fighting vehicle known as the "Terminator," according to Sputnik, a Russian state-owned media outlet. 

Israel and Syria are both interested in the BMPT-72, or Terminator 2, which was also spotted in Syria for supposed testing in late June, Sputnik reported last week. 

The FBI is currently investigating whether Sputnik is "an undeclared propaganda arm of the Kremlin," and so their reports should always be taken with a grain of salt. 

Nevertheless, Russia's Terminator infantry fighting vehicles are rather impressive.
