RKG-3 / RKG-3E / RKG-3EM Anti-Tank Grenade
Grenade Class: D
Weight: 1.07kg
Diameter : 70mm
Length :
Effective Range: 20m
Fuse Delay: impact
Burst Radius: 20m (secondary fragmentation effect E=4 per fragment)
Penetration mm : 150 / 170 / 220 mm (E-factor 502 / 592 / 832)
DPW: 1310
Anti-Armor Class: D
Additional Comments: The RKG-3M is an anti-tank hand grenade and as
such has no direct equivalent in the MP issue equipment. The explosive is a shaped charge in the head of the grenade. When the pin is pulled, a four panel fabric drogue is released as the grenade is thrown, arming it and guiding it so that it impacts nose first. As these grenades have an impact detonator they will fail to explode only 15% of the time.
