The Polish RGO-88 looks like a copy of the RGD-5 (kinda outdated now), with some changes to the fuse, maybe with a retexture it could pass as one, certainly better than the F1?Argentum wrote:This is a russian RGO (at right)
Also the black painted grandes in USSR/Russia is a training grenades, not sure about polish
F1 much more dangerous than RGD-5 like any other defensive grenade (in USSR/Russia grenades are divided into offensive and defensive), RGD-5 is offensive hand grenade it has the much more light fragments and more explosive, F-1 has heavy fragments, less explosive and larger effective casualty radius, uses only from the shelter. Just different types.X-Alt wrote:certainly better than the F1?
That is interesting to know.Argentum wrote:in USSR/Russia grenades are divided into offensive and defensive
That being said, the RGD-5 was retired quite a bit later than the F1 (which is supposedly now used for the training role), and would fit the modern Russian Ground Forces better than the F1. Perhaps multiple RGD-5 grenades could be used for the Breacher and some other kits, and the F1 as a placeholder for the RGO?Argentum wrote:F1 much more dangerous than RGD-5 like any other defensive grenade (in USSR/Russia grenades are divided into offensive and defensive), RGD-5 is offensive hand grenade it has the much more light fragments and more explosive, F-1 has heavy fragments, less explosive and larger effective casualty radius, uses only from the shelter.
