The flash grenade is a type of terran ordnance designed to damage the retinas and/or photo-optic receptors of a target. This is achieved by emitting a burst of light in the visible and ultraviolet parts of the spectrum.^[1] Not even polarized visors of CMC armor can protect a terran from its effects.^[2]

The A-13 grenade launcher can fire flash grenades.^[1] Alternatively, they may be thrown by hand.^[2]
