Project Babylon 

A secret Iraqi project that had the capability of lobbing heavy weapons upon Israel. This Project never saw the light of day because Israeli assassins put an end to it for the sake of their hard-earned homeland.

"Project Babylon isn't anything too fancy. Just another piece of artillery with long-range."

T56 

Chinese variant of the SKS semi-automatic rifle. The "T" stands for "Type"; normally the weapon is called "Type 56", but I call it "T56" for short. I'll try not to mistake it for a tank either. ^_~

"The T56 can be differentiated from the SKS because the Chinese prefer to outfit their T56's with long-ass needles."

T-coat 

Short for "trenchcoat", a type of jacket with a long bottom that seems to drag on the ground, but only if you're not tall enough.

"T-Coats are not allowed to be worn in schools thanks to the Trenchcoat Mafia."
