    Default 40mm Medium Velocity / Extended Range

    The British have raised a supply contract for 40mm MV/ER cartridge grenades to be employed in a feasibility study with in-service single-shot weapons. The contract specified six grenade variants – HEDP and five types of smoke, marker and illuminating. That variety is generally similar to the types of bomb previously fired from their 51mm platoon mortar.

    If testing is successful then possibly the Canadians will follow and be followed in alphabetic order by Oz and NZ.
