FFAR

Folding Fin Aerial Rocket

These unguided rockets are usually fired from tubes inside cylindrical "FFAR pods", after firing the fins flip out to keep the rocket trajectory stable so it hits the intended target.

FFARs come in a variety of different ordnance, HEAT, AP, Flechette among others.
"3rd PLT got outgunned by some T62s but an AH-64D just swooped over slamming FFARs and wasted the whole armour column in a single run, some awesome shit man"

SWAT

Special Weapons And Tactics

SWAT teams are situated in large cities, but some organisations (like the FBI) have similer teams.

SWAT is somewhat a police special forces, handling situations too dangerous for normal police officers. Such as multiple armed suspects, barricaded armed suspects, hostage situations, among others.

Side note: although the cops in america seem crooked, the police in england are polite, friendly, and helpful.
"Talk, we need SWAT in here, multiple suspects armed with automatic weapons on the corner of 12th and main"

AP

As a military abriviation, this is short for Armour Piercing. As in an Armour Piercing round (bullet) or rocket.

An AP round is designed to penetrate through protctive armour, most AP rounds can even penetrate level 3A protective armour (but may have trouble with gunshields) AP rounds are nicknamed "greenies" by the guys in my PLT because of the dab of green paint on the tip to indicate it's an AP round.

An AP rocket (for example, an AP FFAR) is designed to pentrate the armour of heavy armoured vehicles (tanks) as a sole purpose.
"We've got multiple suspects in paramilitary gear, full body armour, so everyone load up with AP rounds"

donkey thump

When you donkeythump someone, you fuck them in the ass and when you're about to blow your load you whack them on the back of the head so they clench. I have experience with this myself.
I donkeythump, therefore I am, although have been donkeythumped myself several times
