The Corps calls it the Mk 21 Mod 0, and Woellhof says the Corps doesn\u2019t have an offensive hand grenade in its arsenal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead, the Corps relies on a defense grenade known as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marinecorpstimes.com\/2014\/11\/13\/marine-s-quick-action-saves-student-from-live-grenade\/\" target=_blank>M67 fragmentation grenade<\/a>. That grenade has fragmentation that creates an effective casualty radius of 15 meters upon explosion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are some drawbacks to relying strictly on a defensive grenade, Woellhof said. With a defensive hand grenade, \u201cyou can\u2019t throw it far enough to get outside the fragmentation,\u201d Woellhof said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Marines who cleared dense urban terrain in bloody fights in the Iraqi cities Fallujah and Haditha are still carrying pieces frag and shrapnel in their bodies from their own grenades, Woellhof explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Marines clearing rooms with defensive grenades may have also inadvertently caused civilian casualties, Woellhof said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIf you throw an M67 into a room it doesn\u2019t discriminate.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nammo\u2019s offensive grenade can limit collateral damage. The device is modular, so a Marine can increase or decrease explosive power by adding grenade bodies. The explosive power of the grenade depends on how many grenade bodies are connected together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A base grenade will cause concussions if a Marine tosses it into a room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAnd you know, they\u2019ll wake up with a bad hangover,\u201d Woellhof said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two connected base grenades will provide 261 grains of explosives and \u201cwill kill anything in a room,\u201d Woellhof explained. Three grenade bases will produce 391 grains of explosives and can be used to destroy structures, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Corps is \u201cinterested and pursuing\u201d the MK21 Mod 0 grenade but nothing has been signed or approved at this time, according to Maj. Joshua Benson, a Marine spokesman.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The grenade is modular, so a Marine can increase or decrease explosive power by adding grenade bodies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":49703,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-nofollow":"","_yoast_wpseo_canonical":"","_acf":"","_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":69,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_smg_distribution_targets":{"2":{"categories":["news","kit","gearscout","off-duty","ammo"],"primary_category":"ammo"},"10":{"categories":["modern-day-marine","digital-show-dailies"],"primary_category":"modern-day-marine"}}},"categories":[101,23,92,93,12,25,69],"tags":[],"coauthors":[3398],"class_list":["post-22731","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily-news-roundup","category-home","category-left-column","category-middle-column","category-news","category-newsletters","category-your-marine-corps"],"acf":{"subheadline":"","legacy_arc_id":"AT4PIVJOENG7PNU4PSOY4SV7WA","arc_canonical_url":"\/news\/your-marine-corps\/2019\/09\/23\/this-could-be-the-corps-next-grenade\/","remove_feature_photo":false,"is_sponsored":false,"subtype":"","redirect_url":"","disable_inline_ads":false,"native_logo_pretext":"Presented By:"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v28.1) -
