Image IPB

Length: 84mm

Weight: 395g

Maximum diameter: 60mm

Explosive filling: RDX/TNT 55/45

Weight of explosive: 170g

Fuse: L25A6

Delay: 4,4secs

Lethal radius: 10m

The grenade L2 is a high explosive anti-personnel grenade based on the US M26 grenade and closely resembling it in appearance and performance. It differs in having a separate fuse assembly. It was designed to be thrown by hand or projected from a rifle but the British army has now dropped the concept of rifle-launched grenades. The L2 grenade has superseded the No 36M-hand grenade. It exists in two variants, L2A1 and L2A2, but the only significant difference between the two is in the design of the fuse holder, which was modified to assist production. The grenade consists of a two part, tinned plate outer casing, a coil of notched wire, a fuse (L25), holder, cap and HE filling. The body assembly (upper and lower) holds the fuse holder in the upper part and the two parts are 40.6 mm (upper) and 36.8 mm (lower) in length and circular in section. The coil is made from steel wire 2.4 mm in section and notched at intervals at 3.2 mm. The HE filling consists of 170 grams of RDX/ TNT.

Stun Grenade/Concussion Grenade/'Flashbang'

Image IPB

Diameter: 51mm

Weight: 301g

Light: 2.4 million candles

Sound: 174 decibels

A diversionary device used by CT Teams and tactical police units' world-wide. Originally developed by the British in the late 1960's/early 1970's, the current version releases 2.4 million candles of light and 174 decibels of sound. When deployed it creates a temporary physiological and psychological response by burning the back of the retina, it forces the victim to hesitate and become disorientated giving an entry team time to move in and resolve the situation.

Flashbangs are sometimes used as warning devices in the field, a trip wire is attached to the pin and laid out. When someone activates the trap the soldiers are alerted to their presence and direction.

White Phosphorus Grenade

Image IPB

Type: white phosphorus grenade

Range: 3-7/20/40

Blast Radius: 0-2/4/8

Damage: 5D/4D/3D, does 3D damage per round to flammable material (including most people) until smothered/submerged, or until the effected bodily areas and/or structures are gone.

Note: will not work in an atmosphere that does not contain freely available oxygen

Purpose: anti-personnel/incendiary (primary), screening (secondary)

The white phosphorus grenade, also known as "Willie Petes", is a horrifically effective device that is officially listed as a screening device for the grey, wispy, light smoke it produces. Most experienced military personnel know better, using them for anti-material and anti-personnel effects. A Willie Pete consists of a light metal container packed with white phosphorus and a small bursting charge. When the charge detonates, it destroys the container, and spreads the white phosphorous, which ignites on contact with oxygen and burns at approximately 2750 degrees standard (27 and a half time the boiling point of water). The only treatments for WP burns are to submerge in water the effected area, and then pick out the particles (which will re-ignite as soon as they are exposed to oxygen), or cover the WP with copper sulphate to deactivate it. Most professional soldiers consider the use of WP-based munitions to be either a barbaric weapon of last resort, or a highly effective weapon with many suitable applications, depending on their personality.
