M213 Fuze / Insensitive Munitions (IM) Hand Grenade (Army)

Abstract

This project comparatively tests off-the-shelf foreign fuzes for the M67 fragmentation hand grenade that exhibit reduced sensitivity to IM stimuli to increase warfighter safety. The legacy M67 was originally developed in the 1960s and does not meet today's IM safety requirements. If successful, this technology will transition to the Army’s Program Executive Office for Ammunition for follow-on procurement and fielding.
