M1729 BLE-G

An item selected for mass-production in the hope of replacing the traditional Florian cocktail as the incendiary device of choice for the BUDF.

The M1729 Bränsle-luften-explosiv granat (fuel-air-explosive grenade), developed by Elwynn High Tech Engineering, is a cannister device carrying an explosive charge capable of generating thermobaric effects in near proximity, especially within confined spaces.

Description

A cylindrical device, the cannister, weighing 600 grams, when initiated, creates a vapour cloud of 12m³ for nine seconds, where, upon ignition of a timed fuse or secondary studded percussion caps, the conflagration reaches a temperature of 2,700–2,800°C, which can generally be considered to have an inimical effect upon exposed flesh within the blast radius. Secondary effects within confined spaces are also noteworthy.
