A rotating cylinder, containing six or more projectiles, paired with a pistol-style grip at the rear and a foregrip at the front - as well as full shoulder stock for additional support - is the current design standard for global launchers today. The multi-shot grenade launcher arrived in the 1980s and have since become an accepted part of the squad-level kit. Early-form weapns were both simple and complex attachments made to the muzzle of service rifles and these graduated to become standalone weapon systems - limited by their single-shot capabilities. Greande launchers form a special part of the infantryman's toolbox today, capable of providing the squad with ranged, direct and in-direct fire support through the launching of oversized projectiles carrying various warhead types.
