76mm Vehicle Launched Grenade RP
The 76mm Vehicle Launched Grenade Red Phosphorus when used in salvoes from suitably placed Armoured Fighting vehicle (AFV) grenade launchers produces a rapid optimum smoke cloud with no ‘window hole’ effect.
APPLICATION
Creation of a thick smoke cloud to conceal movement of vehicles and troops, defensive and offensive smoke strategy, and camouflage, concealment and deception.
The smoke cloud conceals movement of friendly positions and manoeuvres thus reducing the enemy’s ability to deliver a specified attack profile. The smoke screen is achieved by two ground burning canisters containing red phosphorous. The
payloads create an instantaneous maximum possible screen for AFV protection. The smoke characteristics are a burn time of 30 seconds nominal. The V731 grenade is mission selectable for the roles of smoke camouflage, concealment or deception of AFV’s on the battlefield.
