Curiously, I've never heard of FUBAR being used as a term describing a tool. Or the name of a tool. 

I've primarily known FUBAR as a somewhat rude acronym.

Fouled **
Up
Beyond
All
Recognition

(** Fouled being the euphemism for what people REALLY say, of course.)

If something is FUBARed, then it is totaled. Messed up. Broken beyond all hope of recovery, etc. As in "He totally FUBARed the undercarriage on that landing, we're going to have to replace pretty much the whole thing!"
