Flash & Sound Grenade for Safe Crowd Control

The Aerial Burst Distraction is a less-lethal flash and sound grenade designed to disorient, distract, and divide attention in high-pressure or tense situations. 

It launches and detonates mid-air, releasing a high-decibel blast and intense flash that temporarily incapacitates visual and auditory senses, allowing officers or teams to take control of a situation quickly and safely.

This type of grenade is for crowd dispersal, tactical entry, and high-risk arrests and is ideal for use in protests, barricaded suspect encounters, or riot interventions. 

Unlike traditional hand grenades, the Aerial Burst Distraction enables operators to manage distance, safety, and target area with greater control and reduced physical risk.

The Aerial Burst Distraction is employed by riot control teams, special forces, and border agencies to take control of complex and unpredictable environments.  When fired into a crowd or over a targeted location, it detonates in the air with a high-intensity flash and sound, triggering a natural disorienting effect. This short window of confusion allows officers to:
  • Move in with minimal resistance
  • Break up aggressive crowd formations
  • Delay hostile actions or threats
  • Clear spaces without physical force
It is a safer alternative to traditional grenades, made for less-lethal crowd control while protecting officers and reducing civilian injuries.

Lightweight Launcher-Deployed Grenade

The grenade is fired from standard, less-lethal launchers, making deployment easier and more efficient. There’s no need to throw or approach the threat directly.  From a safe distance, law enforcement can cover more area, protect themselves, and manage crowds with greater control and lower risk. This grenade is part of our Less Lethal Smoke Grenades and distraction products line, designed to replace outdated tools with modern, ethical enforcement solutions.
The key features and benefits include:
  • Aerial Detonation: Delivers flash and sound effects above the target zone rather than on the ground.
  • Reduced Physical Impact: Activates mid-air to minimize direct harm.
  • Powerful Output: Emits a bright flash and produces sound levels of 135–145 decibels.
  • Less-Lethal Design: Contains no projectiles, ensuring safer use.
  • Wide-Area Application: Effective for crowd control or tactical entry operations.
  • Launcher Compatibility: Works with standard 37mm and 40mm launchers.
Unlike traditional hand grenades, this distraction grenade performs mid-air detonation. This function reduces the chances of direct injury while still delivering a substantial psychological and sensory impact.
Each grenade offers reliable ignition, controlled delay, and wide-area effectiveness, making it the best less-lethal product in both urban and remote field scenarios.
