Home›Grenades And Explosives›Service Status›In ServiceBrowse ByIn ServiceThis dimension marks whether a weapon system is still in active service, retired or still in development. Wikipedia notes that something repurposed or enhanced for war "is termed weaponized," a status that, like active service itself, can change over the life of a weapon system. Browsing by service status separates weapon systems still in use from those retired.FactsIn ServiceSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonEra of EmergenceWell-attested725 1In ServiceFilter Results19 entriesWeapon Type or ClassAll40mm automatic grenade launcher (1)40mm grenade launcher (1)Anti-personnel land mine (1)Automatic grenade launcher (5)Directional anti-personnel mine (1)Disposable rocket-propelled grenade launcher (1)Disposable shoulder-fired rocket launcher (1)Grenade launcher (1)Man-portable thermobaric rocket weapon (1)Non-lethal crowd control munition (1)Portable anti-tank rocket launcher (1)Rocket-propelled grenade (1)Rocket-propelled grenade launcher (1)Under-barrel grenade launcher (2)CaliberAll105mm (1)30mm (2)30×29mm (2)40mm (7)40x46mm (2)40x53mm (3)64mm (2)90mm (1)Introduced EraAll1957 (1)1960 (1)1961 (1)1968 (1)1969 (1)1970 (2)1972 (1)1974 (1)1978 (1)1979 (1)1986 (1)1989 (1)1991 (1)1995 (1)1999 (1)2006 (1)OperatorAllIndian Army (1)Russian Armed Forces (1)Soviet Armed Forces (2)Turkish Armed Forces (1)United States Army (1)Wars Used InAllBosnian War (1)Cambodian Civil War (4)Falklands War (2)First Chechen War (4)First Congo War (1)Gulf War (5)Iraq War (8)Laotian Civil War (3)Russo-Georgian War (2)Russo-Ukrainian War (7)Second Chechen War (5)South African Border War (2)Soviet-Afghan War (7)Sri Lankan Civil War (2)Syrian Civil War (10)Vietnam War (6)War in Afghanistan (2001-2021) (7)Yemeni Civil War (2)Yugoslav Wars (1)ManufacturerAllBazalt (2)Colt's Manufacturing Company (1)Degtyarev plant (1)General Dynamics Corporation (2)Heckler & Koch (2)KBP Instrument Design Bureau (2)Nammo (1)Sloboda Čačak (2)Springfield Armory (1)ST Kinetics (1)Tula Arms Plant (1)Vyatskiye Polyany Machine-Building Plant (1)BrowseCompareSelect all 19AGS-17In ServiceAGS-30In ServiceGP-25In ServiceHeckler & Koch HK69A1In ServiceHeckler and Koch GMGIn ServiceM141 Bunker Defeat MunitionIn ServiceM16 mineIn ServiceM18 Claymore MineIn ServiceM203 Grenade LauncherIn ServiceM5 crowd control munitionIn ServiceM79 Grenade LauncherIn ServiceM79 OsaIn ServiceM80 ZoljaIn ServiceMk 19 Grenade LauncherIn ServiceMk 47 StrikerIn ServiceRPG-18In ServiceRPG-29In ServiceRPO-A ShmelIn ServiceSTK 40 AGLIn ServiceSources1.
