- "The M95 launches timed-fuse grenades that have quite the bounce, making them valuable for hitting targets around corners or behind cover."
- ―M95 Grenade Launcher description (from Aliens: Fireteam Elite)
The Armat Battlefield Systems M95 Grenade Launcher was a variant of the M94 Impact Grenade chambered for Mark 6 High Explosive Smart Bounce Grenades. It was used by the United States Colonial Marine Corps and other United Americas branches during the late 22nd century.
Development[]
The M95 Grenade Launcher was designed for use in ship-to-ship or station boarding actions, being able to reach targets with its bouncing grenades. It was mounted on an arm like the M56 Smartgun.[1]
Overview[]
The M95 Grenade Launcher fired 30mm Mark 6 High Explosive Smart Bounce Grenades, with an arm mounting reducing its recoil. The M95 was useful for hitting covered or cornered targets; however, while its predecessor was easy to use, the M95 required skills in handling its bouncing grenades in such a way that reduced risk to the user; carelessly launched grenades were likely to result in fratricide.[1]
Notable users[]
Originally released in 2176 for the United States Colonial Marine Corps, the M95 was also used by the United Americas' national services and special forces, the United Americas Orbit Guard, and private military contractors.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
The M95 Grenade Launcher appears in Aliens: Fireteam Elite and can be obtained via a random drop by finishing a mission on Standard difficulty. It can be equipped by Demolisher and Lancer classes.[1]
