Point of no Return 3522012 Granaty 40mm HE M381 1/35

The Point of no Return 3522012 Granaty 40mm HE M381 1/35 scale set is a unique modeling accessory that allows for the precise recreation of popular high-explosive fragmentation grenades used by the United States Armed Forces and allied nations. The historic M381 projectile, designed for use with 40 mm grenade launchers such as the legendary M79 or the underslung M203 for M16 series rifles, became one of the most recognizable types of ammunition during armed conflicts of the Cold War period and in modern times. It was especially frequently used during the Vietnam War and in subsequent peacekeeping and combat operations, such as in Iraq and Afghanistan.

40mm HE M381 grenades contain about 35 grams of explosive material enclosed in a grooved wire shell, which, upon detonation, breaks apart into over 300 fragments, effectively striking personnel within a 5-meter radius. The model from the Point of no Return set perfectly reflects the characteristic details of this ammunition in miniature 1/35 scale, adding realism to any diorama featuring vehicles, helicopters, or soldiers from the Cold War and modern eras.
