The
RAW (
Rifleman's
Assault Weapon) is a
spherical projectile containing 1.27
kilograms of
high explosive. The said explosive '
pancakes' upon impact, producing an extremely destructive effect on
concrete buildings and
light armor. Tests prove that it can blow a hole 30
cm across in 20
cm-thick
reinforced concrete. This is far in excess of the standard
40mm grenades used by such weapons as the
M203 grenade launcher, yet it is as easily portable, able to be mounted on a standard
M16 rifle. It is, however, fairly bulky and thus intended only for short-range
urban combat or
CQB. Because of this, it is particularly useful in
built-up areas, and is used by the
United States Marine Corps. Its internal
rocket propulsion can carry it at a
maximum range of 2
km, but its
effective range is only about 200
m.
