Special weapon
From TF2 Wiki
A Special Weapon is a type of weapon used to support the player and/or his allies, rather than directly kill or attack their opponents.
There are three special weapons in the game.

| Spy's Disguise kit | Engineer's Building PDA | Medic's Medigun |
The Disguise kit and Building PDA do nothing in the game world besides serve a visual cue to the player and others who see his character. It lets you know that a Spy is about to disguise or an Engineer is about to erect a building.
Note that these can be collected as ammo / metal if a character is killed while holding these.
