👉 A tolerance weapon, also known as a tolerance grenade or a precision fragmentation device, is a type of explosive ordnance designed to minimize collateral damage by dispersing its effects over a wide area. Unlike conventional fragmentation devices that create large, concentrated blast zones, tolerance weapons are engineered to spread explosive energy in a controlled manner, reducing the intensity of the blast and blast wave in a specific target area. This is achieved through specialized casing designs that promote fragmentation and dispersion, ensuring that the impact force is more localized and less destructive to surrounding infrastructure and non-combatants. The primary goal of these weapons is to enhance precision in military operations, thereby reducing unintended casualties and damage.
