A '''Flashbang Grenade''' (also considered a '''stun grenade''') is a special type of [[grenade]] used by the [[UNSC]]. Unlike [[Fragmentation Grenades]], these grenades are not intended for lethal use. Flashbangs use chemical reactions to produce an extremely bright flash of light and a very loud concussion blast when deployed, stunning targets, but doing very little physical damage to them. The primary purpose of a stun grenade is to temporarily blind and deafen the enemy. If the victim directly observes the flash, a still frame of what is observed by the victim will be seen for up to ten seconds, at which point their eyes will have returned to their unstimulated state. | A '''Flashbang Grenade''' (also considered a '''stun grenade''') is a special type of [[grenade]] used by the [[UNSC]].

*''[[Halo 3]]'' possesses a piece of [[equipment]] serving a similar function as a Flashbang, the [[Flare]], which is used to blind all nearby players, though it lacks the deafening effect of a flashbang. It does, however, have a noise that can drown out certain other sounds. | *''[[Halo 3]]'' possesses a piece of [[equipment]] serving a similar function as a Flashbang, the [[Flare]], which is used to blind all nearby players, though it lacks the deafening effect of a flashbang.
