dogleg Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 The damage in this picture is not caused by an M79 Grenade Launcher Military munitions cause much greater damage, an rpg is supposed to penetrate armor. It's tipped by a high explosive charge. The damage caused by an m79 would be a hole in the wall that would be much deeper and larger. The very low amount of debris laying around also don't point to an m79. Really it's more consistent with homemade explosive, certainly not military munitions. There are certain homemade bombs that detonate on impact, if you look at the black stain on the wall, it points to homemade impact detonated device that couldn't really cause any harm. Surely that stain is from the exhaust of the truck that backed into the wall?? I think the debris would be spread a little further if an explosion caused this damage.
