The Type-3 Incendiary Grenade is a multi-purposed infantry explosives munition, and can be thrown 10 meters by the average soldier. The filling contains pyrophoric alkali metal Caesium chemical compound, a stable yet hazardous chemical compound that was developed by the [[Jiralhanae]]. Upon impact with a hard surface, the casing converts to liquid form, burning at around 2200&nbsp;°C (3992&nbsp;°F), and causing significant damage to vehicles and infantry alike, automatically killing all nearby infantry in a 4.7 meter (15.5 foot) radius.<ref name="vis"/> The stable caesium mixture filler also escapes from the burning casing, splashing over nearby objects and causing significant damage as it burns for 4.5 seconds. The Jiralhanae have, however, employed variants that burn for longer.<ref name="vis"/> The flame emitted by the grenade is so intense, it is potentially hazardous to a human retina.<ref name="bnet"/>

The toxic nature of caesium renders human flesh inedible to Jiralhanae.<ref name="vis"/>

The Type-3 Incendiary Grenade was first developed by the Jiralhanae on their homeworld, [[Doisac]]. The [[Sacred Promissory]] took over the grenade's development and production and started manufacturing several months prior to the [[Great Schism|breaking of the Covenant Empire]].<ref name="vis"/>

The grenade was one of many pieces of equipment detailed in [[Machines, Materiel and Munitions from the Human-Covenant Conflict, 2525 - Present]].<ref name="bnet"/>

* The Jiralhanae will avoid consuming their enemies whom had been exposed to the Caesium mixture due to its toxicity.<ref name="vis"/>
