Russian term

ТАТ-8

Russian to English Tech/Engineering Engineering (general) Military equipment
This appears in a list of Инженерное имущество being sent to N. Korea by the USSR in 1949.
The quantity is 100 т. штук, so it's apparently not telephone equipment (the only other possible expansion I found for ТАТ), especially since there's a separate Имущество связи listing
Proposed translations (English)
3 +2 TAT-8 blasting cap

TAT-8 blasting cap

maybe it's a type of blasting cap:
"капсюль-детонатор №8 ТАТ"
http://www.lexpev.nl/fuzesandigniters/ussr/russianblastingca...

"No. 8" reflects explosive power (http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Капсюль-детонатор)

"ТАТ" stands for explosives ТНРС - Азид свинца - Тетрил (http://flot.com/publications/books/shelf/shikanov/43.htm, Table 9.6)
