Abstract

This paper presents the terminal ballistics of a 40×46mm less lethal grenade. The aim of the research was to determine the kinetic energy applied to the surface in the moment of impact and also the non-lethal characteristic of this ammunition. 40 × 46 mm less-lethal kinetic grenade is made of resilient material that increases its surface in the moment of impact in order to dissipate the kinetic energy developed
