The '''40mm grenade''' is a type of lethal and nonlethal munitions in the service of the [[United Nations Space Command]].{{Ref/Book|Id=EVG84|EVG|Page=84}}{{Ref/Book|Id=EVG131|EVG|Page=131}}{{Ref/Site|Id=Waypoint|URL=http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/featured/gallery/grenade-launcher/da7b3469-943d-470c-8953-e2de668c8402|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Grenade Launcher|D=26|M=04|Y=2011|LocalArchive=Archive:Halo Waypoint/2009 to 2014/Universe/Weapons#Grenade Launcher}}{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=178}}
The '''40mm High Explosive Dual-Purpose (HEDP) Grenade''' is a munitions type utilized exclusively by the [[M319 Individual Grenade Launcher]].<ref>'''[[Halo: The Essential Visual Guide]]''', ''page 84''</ref>


==Known types==
== Overview ==
=== Mk 110 MOD 2 HEDP ===
The 40mm grenade has two detonation modes, depending upon the way it is detonated after firing. The first detonation mode, upon being fired, bounces off a surface once, or when it strikes an organic target, will detonate almost immediately, causing an instant kill. The second detonation mode results in a delayed detonation, usually when the user takes their finger off the trigger after holding it down for a time. Additionally, the grenade is capable of emitting an [[electromagnetic pulse]], so when detonated in close proximity to a mechanical target, like a [[Type-26 Wraith|Wraith]], a [[Type-32 Rapid Assault Vehicle|Ghost]], or a [[Type-48 Light Assault Gun Carriage|Revenant]], the targeted vehicle will automatically power down temporarily.
The Mk 110 MOD 2 High-Explosive Dual-Purpose (HEDP) is a type of 40mm grenade utilized by the [[M319 grenade launcher]] and the [[M460 automatic grenade launcher]].{{Ref/Reuse|EVG84}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} Both grenade launchers have two detonation modes, depending upon the way it is detonated after firing. The first detonation mode, upon being fired, bounces off a surface once, or when it strikes a target, will detonate almost immediately. The second detonation mode results in a delayed detonation, usually when the user takes their finger off the trigger after holding it down for a time.{{Ref/Game|HR|In-game grenade launcher}}
 
=== XM20P EMP ===
The XM20P EMP grenade is capable of emitting an [[electromagnetic pulse]] upon detonation, stripping enemy infantry of their personal shields and temporarily disabling vehicles. It is also utilized by the M319 and the M460 grenade launchers.{{Ref/Reuse|EVG84}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}
 
=== Unidentified canister ===
This unidentified 40mm grenade is typically a canister holding high explosive filler;{{Ref/Reuse|EVG131}} it shares the same canister as a type of UNSC [[smoke grenade]]s, albeit featuring a yellow, rather than blue, band. On some canisters, the main body is coated with a thin rubberized material for easy grip. The lid contains the activator switch and fuze mechanisms. Designated as a defensive grenade, it is intended to be used from prepared positions.{{Ref/Generic|Id=cosplay|{{file link|H3ODST Cosplay Guide.pdf|The Rookie Cosplay Guide}}|page 56}} It was commonly carried by [[Orbital Drop Shock Troopers]] during the [[Fall of Reach]] and the [[Battle of Mombasa]] in [[2552]].{{Ref/Game|H3ODST|[[Rookie]] in-game model}}{{Ref/Game|H3ODST|[[Dutch]] in-game model}}{{Ref/Level|HR|Exodus}}{{Ref/Level|HR|The Package}} Three of these grenades were typically attached to the [[ODST armor]]'s belt by attachment connectors on the canister's lid.{{Ref/Reuse|cosplay}}
 
=== Unidentified flashbang ===
This unidentified 40mm flashbang grenade is a nonlethal grenade fired from the underbarrel [[M301 grenade launcher]],{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc11|Enc11|Page=320}} which is typically attached to the [[M6634 flamethrower]] or assault rifles in the [[MA5 series]].{{Ref/Game|Id=HW1|HW|M6634 flamethrower in-game model}}{{Ref/Site|Id=BNetMA5C|URL=http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=BAGAssaultRifle|Site=Bungie.net|Page=MA5C Assault Rifle|D=16|M=12|Y=2007|LocalArchive=Machines, Materiel and Munitions from the Human-Covenant Conflict, 2525 - Present#MA5C Assault Rifle}}
 
==Production notes==
In ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', the serial number M45A771B on the canister is mirrored; since the same serial number is printed on the [[smoke grenade]], the [[M392 DMR]], and the [[MA37 assault rifle]], it is likely all four items share the same decal sheet.
