Type 73

Notes: This is a Chinese mini-grenade similar in appearance to a small version of the RGD-5, with a stick attached for throwing. It was issued liberally to Chinese reserve forces, and copies were made by some Middle Eastern nations, from which they found their way into the hands of terrorist groups.

Type 79 Rocket Hand Grenade

Notes: This is a novel Chinese design, in which the user has the option either to throw it conventionally or firing it using an attached rocket motor to a base range of 25 meters or an indirect fire range of 400 meters. When using the rocket motor, Grenade Launcher skill is used, but hit probabilities in indirect fire mode are one level more difficult due to the difficulty in aiming a hand held device.

Type 86

Notes: This is a Chinese minifrag with a plastic body and explosives surrounded by 1600 small steel balls. Because they are so small, the steel balls are fast and carry a great distance, producing a wide burst radius for the grenade's size.
