The [[UNSC]]-issued '''M9 High-Explosive Dual-Purpose Grenade''' (abbreviated '''M9 HE-DP Grenade''') functions in a manner very similar to contemporary hand grenades. A blast bursts the grenade's shell open and sends many small metal fragments flying at high speed, causing damage to [[energy shields]], armor, and flesh in a ten meter (30ft) radius. Four may be carried at a time, although this was reduced to 2 in Halo 3. | The [[UNSC]]-issued '''M9 High-Explosive Dual-Purpose Grenade''' (abbreviated '''M9 HE-DP Grenade'''), also known as the '''Fragmentation Grenade''', functions in a manner very similar to contemporary hand grenades.
