    Abstract: The grenade is a multi-purpose munition which can be used as a distraction device, like a flash bang grenade, and can be equipped with chemical agent powder for added capabilities. The grenade is also a sting ball grenade and is a less-lethal form of weapon, designed to reduce fatalities in civilians located in conflict areas. The munition is constructed to be low lethality, and capable of being launched from military and law enforcement 37 mm and 40 mm grenade launchers presently in use today. It is designed to be used in multiple roles when lethal projectiles are not a viable or preferred option, such as hostage situations, riots, room and building clearing operations, narcotics interdictions, distraction and diversionary purposes, and as a method of introducing a chemical agent into a small area from a distance. The grenade can be employed from distances over 400 yards, extending the range of the present art, which is 30 yards.
