stun grenades

Tactical blinding devices

Stun grenades are explosive devices designed to disorient rather than kill.

They produce an intense flash of light and deafening bang—hence the alternate name *flashbang*.

Used by military and law enforcement during raids and hostage rescues, they temporarily blind and deafen people in the blast radius, allowing tactical teams to enter with advantage.

Police lobbed stun grenades before breaching the door.
