Quote: "The ammunition of Ukrainian production matches specifications of modern close-quarter combat weapons. Previously, we did not have any production of this type of grenades. "

Details: It is noted that the hand grenade is designed to target the manpower deployed out in the open. Due to its explosive power, it is necessary to only use it from cover, the ministry adds.

It is also reported that the Ministry of Defence codified and adopted a remote-action hand offensive grenade, an analogue of the Soviet RGD-5. Its serial production has been established by a Ukrainian manufacturer.
