The '''M9 High-Explosive Dual-Purpose grenade''' ('''M9 HE-DP''') is the standard-issue hand grenade of the [[United Nations Space Command]]. The weapon is semi-erroneously known as a '''fragmentation grenade''' and the colloquial '''frag'''. Furthermore, the M9 designation technically refers to several models of varying design.<ref name="bungie"/> Like most UNSC small arms and explosives, the M9 is produced by [[Misriah Armory]].<ref name="vis"/>


The grenade has received a number of colourful nicknames among UNSC personnel, including "'''Damage'''", "'''Firecracker'''", "'''Pineapple'''", "'''Blast Beetle'''", "'''Hopper'''", and "'''Croaker'''".{{Ref/Reuse|Enc09}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc11}}
==Design details==
[[File:ReachSchematic - FG.png|200px|thumb|left|A blueprint of the M9 in ''Halo: Reach''.]]
HE-DP stands for High-Explosive Dual-Purpose. This designation means that it is designed to be effective against infantry and lightly armored vehicles. AP FRAG can be viewed on the ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' M9's olive casing. AP designates "anti-personnel", indicating the weapon's intended use.


==Overview==
The grenade has a hard metal casing, with a frangible design meant to break apart into small, regular shards. This surface creates consistent, reliable fragmentation patterns for the grenade, rather than randomly rupturing along metallurgical faults. The grid-shaped casing houses a charge of [[ComL]] high-explosive fitted with a mechanical primer. When the charge detonates, it shatters the grenade's casing, sending shrapnel flying away at high velocity.
[[File:ReachSchematic - FG.png|200px|thumb|left|A blueprint of the M9 in ''Halo: Reach''.]]
 
===Design details===
In all Halo games, the grenade must first hit the ground before exploding. In ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', the grenade would not detonate mid-air. In ''Halo 2'' and ''Halo 3'', it would bounce and explode mid-air a moment after bouncing. But in ''Halo 3'', if the grenade was thrown up, and hit a surface going up, it would not explode until it hit the ground. This is a safety feature, ensuring the grenade would only explode after striking a surface after being thrown, and not in the user's hand. This may explain the lack of a "spoon", or handle, on the ''Halo 2'' and ''3'' M9 HE-DP grenades. The spoon is a device that is gripped while the grenade is being primed. It ensures the grenade will not explode until after the spoon is released, as it starts the fuse of a grenade as it flies through the air after it is thrown. In ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', the spoon would have negated the need for this ''Halo 2'' safety feature.

The M9 is a High-Explosive, Dual-Purpose fragmentation grenade widely utilised throughout the UNSC's service branches. The grenade's operating mechanism has been essentially unchanged for centuries,{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint}} since it entered service in [[2310]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} The designation is used to apply to a number of vastly different grenades created in numerous munitions plants throughout [[Human colonies|colonised space]]; though all examples exhibit broadly similar properties. The grenade's explosive power comes from [[Composition L]],{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/the-new-halo-encyclopedia-is-out-today|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=The New Halo Encyclopedia is Out Today|D=11|M=03|Y=2023}} or "ComL" - an explosive filler inside every M9 grenade with a volume of 190 grams (6.7 ounces). ComL is generally stable until the explosion is triggered,{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint}} at which point the exterior casing fragments into roughly 1x5mm shards, and is sent flying in various predetermined directions.{{Ref/Reuse|bungie}}
The grenade is primed with a small button located on the "handle", quite unlike modern fragmentation grenades which use a pin that must be pulled before priming.
 
In ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', the fragmentation grenade left a white smoke trail behind it when thrown and would create sparks when it landed after being hurled, indicating that the grenades fuse could be a gas-release system. The grenade would be primed with pressing a button, release gas when in mid-air and then detonate when landing in a static position. This would make the grenade's detonation system depend on placement rather than timed detonation.
 
In ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' and ''Halo 2'', four of these grenades may be carried at a time. This was reduced to two in ''Halo 3'' due to the presence of four grenade types, but increased to three in ''Halo 3: ODST''; in ''Halo: Reach'' the player is again able to carry only two grenades.
 
=== Advantages ===
This grenade can be effectively hurled and bounced around corners and travels farther than the [[Plasma Grenade]]; this can be used to quickly and aptly damage an attacker before he can move away from it, giving you an instant advantage in the close combat situation. It is also harder to see and has a shorter fuse, therefore making it harder to avoid and more useful for killing enemies on foot. In ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', it also seems to have a larger blast radius than a Plasma Grenade. It has the largest casualty radius than the other grenade types in ''Halo 3''. Also, since it is harder to see, having an enemy run over one by accident can happen more easily than with a bright blue plasma grenade.
 
=== Disadvantages ===
*Unlike the Plasma and Spike grenades, this grenade does not stick to objects or opponents. It has more of a chance of wounding a player than killing them because an unwounded player has to practically crouch on the grenade to be within the kill-radius.
*The grenade cannot kill a fully shielded [[Sangheili]], [[Spartan]], or [[Jiralhanae]], unless they are touching it. It can, however, kill a partially shielded opponent in a single hit. In stark contrast, the Plasma Grenade is a one-hit kill if stuck or lands nearby so players have to be careful when throwing.
* In the ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' campaign, if one grenade is caught in the blast of another, it will be set off; this can lead to massive chain reactions if large numbers of grenades are scattered around the battlefield. However, grenades that were originally spawned on the map will not detonate, only the ones that are dropped by enemies and allies that are killed. A similar effect is found in the ''Halo 2'' campaign, however since the grenades are less powerful these chain reaction explosions are less dangerous and less likely to occur.
*Smoke comes out when you throw it, so enemies can easily see and avoid it if they are fast.
 
==Tactics==
===Campaign===
The M9 HE-DP Grenade is best used when enemies gather together in tight groups. A well thrown grenade placed in the middle of a Covenant [[lance]] will kill most of the Grunts and damage an [[Sangheili Personal Energy Shield|Elite's shields]]. With the shields damaged, players can easily kill the Sangheili. In addition, frag grenades should also be used against a group of Jackals, as their [[Kig-yar Point Defense Gauntlet|defense shields]] will not protect them from the blast. In ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', the only Elites that can be killed with one detonation are [[Stealth Sangheili]], with its downgraded shields. The M9 HE-DP Grenade is also commonly used against light-armored vehicles.


The M9 is triggered by a simple digital timer fuse, which then detonates a small primer explosive, in turn triggering the ComL to explode and send the shrapnel fragments flying away from the grenade.{{Ref/Reuse|bungie}}{{Ref/Reuse|vis}} The digital timer fuse sits atop the top of the weapon,{{Ref/Reuse|vis}}{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}} with a hardpoint available to allow the grenade to be linked to a serviceman's [[UNSC Marine Corps Battle Dress Uniform|battle dress uniform]] (BDU).{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}}
===Multiplayer===
A multipurpose weapon, the fragmentation grenade can be used in corridors, to flush out occupants. The blast will severely damage player's energy shields allowing for easy follow up attacks. One frag grenade is considered as either aid in combat for quick damage before the fight starts, or as a tool to finish off an unshielded opponent. A grenade can be bounced off of a wall to ambush an enemy or kill your ambushers. Two frags is where this grenade becomes a killer all on its own. The first takes out the shields, the second finishes them off.
If timed correctly, grenades can be planted in the path of an oncoming vehicle. Most drivers will not be able to react quickly enough, and will most likely be caught in the blast. Lighter vehicles will be easily flipped by concussive blast, and a heavily damaged vehicle will often times simply be destroyed.


===Variants===
Another good multiplayer tactic is to throw one at the player's feet while back-pedaling when an enemy is charging at the player. When the grenade detonates, the other person should be in the blast radius of the grenade and have their shields damaged or be killed. This is useful to fight oncoming vehicles, preferably light-armored vehicles like Ghosts, Mongooses, or Warthogs. Frags are also very handy to kill opponents when used in conjunction with explosive objects. Destroying [[Fusion Coils]] or [[Plasma Battery|Plasma Batteries]] with a grenade means the grenade's damage plus the explosive's damage would hurt or kill the target more effectively than a single frag grenade.

M9 fragmentation grenades come in a number of variants exhibiting great variance in size and shape, depending on their location of manufacture. Despite this, they all exhibit broadly similar performance properties.{{Ref/Reuse|vis}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} M9 variants are generally not given unique model designators and are instead all simply considered M9s - even when they share relatively little in common.{{Ref/Reuse|bungie}}

The fragmentation grenade is also a good finishing tool since it is powerful enough to take down a spartan's shields, without the user being in line-of-sight of their target. Use an automatic weapon (Assault Rifle, Plasma Pistol/Rifle, SMG,) to take down their shields then throw the grenade at the person's feet once your mag is empty or overheated for the finishing blow.

==Trivia==
{{Expand-section}}
{{Linkbox|gallery=yes|gallerypage=Images of M9 Grenade}}
The M9 is a staple weapon present in all ''Halo'' games to date. It can be effectively hurled and bounced around corners and travels farther than the [[Covenant]]'s [[Plasma Grenade]] alternative; this can be used to quickly and aptly damage an attacker before he can move away from it, giving you an instant advantage in the close combat situation. It is also harder to see and has a shorter fuse, therefore making it harder to avoid and more useful for killing enemies on foot.  
*Frag grenades will not bounce when it lands in snow or sand, making them more deadly on [[Snowbound]], [[Sandbox]], [[Avalanche]], and [[Sandtrap]].
*In ''Halo 2'', ''Halo 3'', ''Halo 3: ODST'', ''Halo: Reach'', and ''Halo 4'', players can shoot grenades out of the air, causing them to explode prematurely. The best weapon for this is the Battle Rifle (or the DMR in Reach).
*In ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', the Frag Grenade is smaller when in use than when it is inactive.
*In ''Halo 3'', it is possible to deflect rockets with a Frag Grenade explosion, similar to the Gravity Hammer deflecting a rocket. However, this is extremely difficult to pull off, so it is not a recommended tactic.
*In ''Halo: Reach'', grenades lying in the ground can be shot to injure nearby enemies. Grenade impacts also do damage to targets before they detonate. It takes the impact damage of 58 grenades to kill a fully shielded player.
*In ''Halo: Reach'', the Frag grenade produces a deafening effect on nearby players for several seconds and is much bigger than in previous ''Halo'' games.
*In the ''Halo: Reach'' Multiplayer Beta, the Frag Grenade had a larger explosive radius, causing the community to compare them to "little tactical nukes" or "Holy Hand Grenades". The overall damage level was reduced back to the standard of the ''Halo 3'' Frag Grenade in the final product.{{Citation needed}}
