Sonic grenade: Difference between revisions

'''Sonic [[grenades]]''' are [[United Nations Space Command]] weapons. Little is known about them, other than that several of these were used by [[Colonel]] [[James Ackerson]] in testing the [[MJOLNIR Mark V]] armor on [[Reach]], hidden amongst the [[Pillars of Loki]] and used in conjunction with [[napalm grenade]]s.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', ''page 262''</ref>

The sonic grenade may be similar to a [[Fragmentation Grenade]] in structure and detonation, except that it uses a miniature sonic boom rather than explosives. The grenade may be a non-lethal weapon used by drill instructors to teach [[Marines]] to keep their eyes peeled, hitting them with a loud sound that hurts their ears rather than actually causing them bodily harm. It would be one of the nicer booby traps used by DIs.
