MK3A2 Replacement , XM111 Offensive Hand Grenade

Abstract

The current MK3A2 Offensive Hand Grenade can expose the Warfighter to toxic levels of asbestos and is restricted for use in Continental United States and Outside Continental United State (CONUS/OCONUS). The warfighter cannot safely employ this grenade. Alternate munitions do not satisfy user requirements for incapacitating the enemy. This effort incorporates modern materials and insensitive explosives to provide a safer, producible offensive grenade and its associated training device, XM112.
