Hand grenades are explosive weapons designed to be thrown by hand at a target. Typically used by the military, police, and other law enforcement units, hand grenades are an effective tool to disable or destroy targets, as well as to force the enemy out of cover.
General specifications of hand grenades include:
Shape and Weight: Hand grenades usually have a round or cylindrical shape, with weight varying depending on the model and explosive content. The weight can range from several hundred grams to several kilograms.
Raw Material: Generally made from metal or synthetic materials that are resistant to explosive forces.
Explosive Charge: Hand grenades have an explosive charge inside them, which can be conventional explosives such as TNT (Trinitrotoluene) or modern explosives such as RDX (Cyclonite). This explosive charge is designed to produce a powerful explosion and is effective in damaging targets.
Trigger System: Hand grenades are equipped with a trigger system, which usually consists of a trigger and an initiation mechanism. There are different types of trigger systems, including those using a safety, safety pin, or trigger lever.
Explosion Range: The effective explosion distance of a hand grenade varies depending on the model, but is generally in the range of a few meters to several tens of meters from the point of throw.
Effect: The explosion of a hand grenade can cause significant physical damage to the target and can also cause serious or fatal injuries to bystanders due to the projectiles and fragments thrown.
It is important to note that the use of hand grenades requires special training and must be used with caution to avoid accidental injury to the user or others nearby. Additionally, strict laws and regulations typically govern the use, possession, and transportation of hand grenades.
