ww2dbaseRGD-33 anti-personnel fragmentation stick grenades entered Soviet service in 1933, replacing the Model 1914 grenades. The timing fuses on these grenades lasted between 4 and 5 seconds. Upon detonation of the 85 grams of TNT, rectangular strips of fragments would be sprayed in all directions in a 15-meter radius, which was relatively small for fragmentation grenades; to increase the kill range, metal fragmentation sleeves weighing 270 grams each could be added, which created diamond shaped heavy fragments with a greater range upon detonation. Production lasted from 1933 until some time in the early 1940s, but RGD-33 grenades would remain in use across Soviet-friendly nations through WW2, Korean War, and Vietnam War.
