FSB or Internal Troops, full name Internal Troops of the Ministry for Internal Affairs (MVD) is a militia/national guard -like military force in the now-defunct Soviet Union and its successor countries, particularly in Russia and Ukraine.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Edit

These Internal Troops can be seen in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 equipped with anti-riot outfits and shields. They intervene on the Zakhaev International Airport during the mission "No Russian", after Makarov and his men committed their massacre. Makarov, as well as the newspaper articles in Makarov's estate refers to them as the FSB. This appears to be an error made by Infinity Ward, as they used markings from each group in the game. Both the newspapers and Makarov refer to them as the FSB, and the SWAT vans they arrive in read ФСБ (FSB) on the sides. However, their left sleeve patch reads Внутренние войска (Internal Forces) instead of ФСБ, and the unit patch is that of the supply units of Russian Interior Troops (white griffon on black).^[1] It is also worth noting that their back/breast patches read МВД РФ (MVD RF), which is also incorrect, seeing as if they were meant to be Internal Troops their back/breast patches would read ВВ МВД. This means they bear markings of the FSB, MVD, as well as the Internal Troops.

They are also seen in the opening cutscene of the game, at a public unveiling of Zakhaev's statue when the Ultranationalist Party takes power.

They were described as enemies in the Special Ops level "Breach & Clear," however, they just were replacement skins for early screenshots until the creation of proper Ultranationalist NPCs. The Ultranationalist NPCs with riot shields, that are used as multiplayer models and later used in "Breach and Clear", are not related to the FSB.

The FSB also provide regular security for the Airport.  The uniform for these guards consists of dark pants and light blue shirts with red ties, with a bulletproof vest, and they are issued variety of handguns and SMGs.
