The FRAG-12 is a specialized shotgun shell which contains a small amount of high explosive to breach intermediate barriers, defeat light vehicles, and disrupt IEDs. The shell was designed by the Special Cartridge Company in London, England. Later its patent extended to Olympic Technologies Ltd in Gibraltar. The shell uses a 50 mm (2.0 in) long metal body filled with 3.4 g (0.12 oz) of composition A5. Four folding fins spring out after leaving the muzzle. The shell arms at 3 metres (9.8 ft) and explodes on impact by MIL SPEC 1316 fuze. It has a maximum range of 200 metres (660 ft).
