1: Tupolev, a Russian plane.

2: A costume worn by tango dancers.

3: The name of a novel.

4: A WWII term meaning dead. On par with FUBAR, BLETCH, and
BLATHER, TU (Tango Uniform being the phonetic alplabetical)
means "Tits Up".  A pilot might say, "Roger flight, that
bogey is Tango Uniform.", to mean that the enemy plane had
crashed or been shot down.

If you have troble figuring out what tits are, ask an adult.

Ain't language facinatin'?
