MK3A2 Replacement, Concussion Grenade Optimization Effort
Abstract
This effort incorporates modern materials and insensitive explosives to provide a safer, producible concussion grenade. Use of the MK3A2 Offensive grenade has been suspended due to age and safety issues. The current MK3A2 can expose the Soldier to toxic levels of asbestos. War fighters cannot safely employ the offensive grenade. Alternate munitions such as the M84 do not satisfy User needs for incapacitation of the enemy.
