Why is the hand grenade needed?
Long Answer:Hand grenades give light infantry and effective and simple way of delivering a concentrated charge of explosives over short ranges. The small size and relatively light weight of a hand grenade such as the M67 Fragmentation Grenade used by the US Army and Marine Corps makes it highly portable, and its considerable lethal radius makes it useful for clearing rooms or bunkers in MOUT (Military Operations in Urban Terrain)/ urban warfare operations, indirect tactical fire needs by lobbing it over walls and other obstacles, for engaging groups of enemy soldiers in more open terrain, and for damaging or destroying thin-skinned or lightly protected vehicles and targets.Short Answer:Basically, a grenade lets a light-armed soldier pack explosive firepower and use it to clear rooms/bunkers/trenches, and attack nearby targets behind cover by throwing it over whatever the enemy is hiding behind. It can also be used to attack trucks, jeeps, etc.Urban warfare is one case where the grenade is especially useful.
Do grenades have fuses with delays that last from 2 to 12 seconds?
It depends on which grenade you are using. The U.S. M67 Fragmentation Grenade currently in use by the military has a fuse that burns in 3-5 seconds. The fuse that ignites the grenade can be used on all other grenades (smoke, CS, etc.) of U.S. design. Other grenades of different origin may take more or less time. I don't believe any grenade will have a 12-second fuse, though. That would be impractical, because it would give the enemy more than enough time to take cover or even throw it back. The rule of thumb with grenades is 5 seconds, and when in doubt, remember Murphy's Law: "All five second fuses burn in three seconds".
