The SSW 40 feeds from box magazines and utilizes a recoil-reducing mechanism to tame the recoil from 40mm grenades. SSW 40 with optic and laser aiming module. The weapon is an evolution of the Hydra AGL which was a collaboration between Rheinmetall and Milkor. The SSW 40 was unveiled at Eurosatory 2022 and will be available for delivery in 2023. Rheinmetall, a German military weapons company is manufacturing the SSW 40. The Squad Support Weapon 40 (SSW 40) – Automatic Grenade Launcher (AGL) is a new semiautomatic grenade launcher. While on paper grenade launchers are an indirect fire weapon, a 40mm projectile moving at 78–84 m/s can have devastating effects even without detonating. This has a bit of a learning curve at first, but an experienced grenadier can engage targets based on feel alone. The steeper the angle, the longer the range.
Using a tangent or ladder-style sight, the user adjusts the angle of the barrel in relation to the ground to alter its trajectory. This means that you don’t aim it the same way you aim a rifle. Grenade launchers are technically an indirect fire weapon. This ensures that if the grenade won’t kill the user if they severely blow their shot. High explosive grenades require the grenade to travel around 14-28m before the grenade arms. The grenades fired from a grenadier’s launcher are usually low velocity which limit the range to around 400m. Today almost all NATO countries use one of the launchers mentioned in this list and they all fire some form of 40mm projectiles. Dead space can be any area where you don’t know exactly what’s behind it but there’s a high probability its someone who wants to kill you. The grenadier’s job is typically to engage targets such as vehicles, machine gun nests, and enemies in “dead space”. Grenade launchers are used by soldiers known as grenadiers. Typically, grenade launchers fire explosive projectiles but fire a variety of loads such as smoke, flares, or even ballistic projectiles. Grenade launchers are individual operated support weapons intended to assist the infantry while assaulting.
