Patent ID: 8381657

Claim:
An enhanced tactical grenade comprising: a hollow outer shell, substantially spherical in shape; a hollow inner shell disposed within the outer shell, said inner shell of plastic and comprising micro void spaces therein which resist deformation of the inner shell during detonation; a plurality of shaped fragments disposed in an area between the outer shell and the inner shell; a filler disposed substantially in the area between the outer shell and the inner shell not occupied by the shaped fragments; a quantity of energetic material disposed within the inner shell; and a fuze for detonating the energetic material such that upon detonation the grenade explodes and the shaped fragments are scattered, said fuze becoming dislodged from said outer shell if said grenade is exposed to a fire, by melting of the outer shell material, such fuze dislodging thereby preventing detonation of said energetic material through lack of interior grenade air pressure.
