stiealhand grenade, frag grenade, smoke grenade tabun gas grenade, and sticky grenade

stieal? (Steel?) hand grenade, frag grenade, smoke grenade, tabun gas grenade, sticky grenade.

There are also Anti-Tank HEAT and white phosphorus smoke, or other types of smoke grenades that are thrown and, or projected by rifles and other launchers. Fragmentation grenades and flairs can also be launched from a rifle grenade launcher/adapter. Furthermore, there are also offensive and defensive fragmentation hand grenades. Offensive grenades have either a plastic case with out fragments, or many very small fragments that do not travel far and are thus little danger to the advancing troupes who tossed it some required distance. The Offensive hand grenade has fragments who's size is chosen to trade effective radius against chance to inflict a disabling wound. Larger fragments travel farther, but there are less of them which reduces the chance of success at longer ranges where their spread is farther apart.

What was the purpose of a granade?

There are three kinds of grenades. Antipersonnel grenades are used against people. There are fragmentation grenades, which break up when they explode and scatter, at high speeds, pieces of metal which injure or kill whoever you used the grenade against. There are also distraction grenades which create a loud noise and bright flash of light to stun the target...while they're stunned, you can rush in and take them into custody. (SWAT teams love distraction grenades.) Smoke grenades produce thick clouds of smoke. There are white smoke grenades used to conceal troop movements, and colored smoke grenades used for signaling. Product-delivery grenades come in two varieties. The first are White Phosphorous (willy-pete), which is an incendiary agent. The other are Tear Gas grenades.
