fragmentation grenades
Shrapnel-dispersing throwable munitions
Fragmentation grenades are explosive weapons designed to scatter metal fragments upon detonation, causing injury or death over a wide area.
The outer casing—often scored or containing embedded shrapnel—breaks apart when the internal charge explodes, propelling fragments at high velocity.
Standard infantry weapons in modern warfare: The squad carried fragmentation grenades for clearing bunkers.
Often shortened to frag grenades.
