Customized, but original is Digital Sans EF Medium Italic. Try a preview with "CF1RBON" and compare.

Both Terminator Real NFI and SteelWolf Medium (two of the most popular Terminator fonts) were created long after both The Terminator (1984) and Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991) had been released. The onscreen logotype and titles by Pacific Title for T1, T2, and even T3, all utilize a phototype known in pre-digital form as Earth. Dan X. Solo managed to provide an ID (http://luc.devroye.org/DanSolo-Earth.gif) in one of his many Dover Publications books on typography. Elfring Fonts (http://www.elfring.com/earth.htm) created a somewhat altered digital family of fonts, also called Earth, during the 1990's. It's possible that Elfring Fonts created the original 1970's typeface but it's also possible that they simply have access to the original phototype film reels or samples. Either way, they have not released a more historically accurate version of Earth in digital form.

Earlier uses of Earth predate 1984's The Terminator by many years, as this titling on Frederik Pohl's 1977 novel Gateway (http://smsa.org.au/assets/gateway-frederik-pohl.jpg) proves. Not to mention being featured in numerous other films and TV shows of the 1980's, including Blade Runner [license plate props] (1982), Automan (1983), Tightrope (1984), Airwolf (1984), and Humanoid Defender (1985).

So there you have it. Earth has been around since the 1970's and is an exact match (with a little digital tweaking) for the Terminator logotype and titles. No one usually gets a proper ID as it's not for sale on the regular font sites and, therefore, not in the ID databases for MyFonts, Identifont, etc...

If you see anybody suggesting Terminator Real NFI or SteelWolf Medium, please direct them here.

Unsure of original phototype/filmotype name but it was also used on some 1970's Robert A. Heinlein book covers, from which Omega Design based their 1990's Heinlein font. Also used for the red Terminator POV scenes and the main titles/introductory text in 1987's The Running Man. Between these three sources (Terminator, Running Man, Heinlein books) you can view almost all of the characters.

As numerous people had previously requested this one, Yautja created Modern Vision via FontStruct. It offers a more complete and accurate character set than Heinlein but I would still recommend checking out both to see which best suits your needs.

Suggested font: Modern Vision

Genisys looks very close to GetVoIP Grotesque.

Terminator part looks custom but Spy Agency is a close substitute.
