Abstract:

OBJECTIVE

To determine the specific morphological features of damages on the cloth and biological simulator of the human body in the detonation of RGD-5 and RGN fragmentation hand offensive grenades.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

The study was carried out on the 12 targets from a biological simulator of the human body wrapped in cotton cloth by detonation of examined grenades at a distance of 50 cm and 1 m from the target.

RESULTS

The character and features of damages of cloth and human body biological simulator, features of soot deposition made it possible to determine specific signs for each of examined offensive grenades types.

CONCLUSIONS

The complex of obtained data allows to determine with high accuracy the detonation distance and the type of explosive device.
