The F-1 Hand Grenade was a Soviet Era defensive fragmentation grenade that was used since World War 2. It was still in use by Soviet military forces all the way through the 1980s together with offensive [[RGD-5 hand grenade|RGD-5]]. Both grenades were to be replaced with new [[RGN hand grenade|RGN]] and [[RGO hand grenade|RGO]] grenades in 1980s but due to collapse of Soviet Union the replacement mostly stopped and they are still standart issue grenades for Russian Armed Forces. It was seen during the Russo-Afghan War (1979-1988). It was sometimes referred to (incorrectly) as the RGD-1 Grenade during the Cold War, and only after the fall of the Communism did Western scholars determine that the Russians never called it anything other than "F-1".

"The F-1 Hand Grenade was a Soviet Era fragmentation grenade that was used during World War 2. It was still in use by Soviet military forces all the way through the 1980s, even though the RGD-5 was the standard issue grenade for front line Soviet forces as of the mid 1960s."
I'm sorry but this paragraph is simply wrong. RGD-5 and F-1 was never considered in USSR/Russia as same class weapons. RGD-5 is offensive grenade i.e. grenade with limited effective range intended for use without cover. It replaced WW2 era RG-42 grenade. F-1 is defensive grenade with fragments flying range larger than range of throw therefore prohibited to use without cover. Usually motorized infantry troop carried two grenades: one RGD-5 and one F-1. Both grenades was replaced by new RGN (offensive) and RGO (defensive) grenades in 1980s but their design had some problems and collapse of USSR interfered so RGD-5 AND F-1 are still in use. I'm going to rewrite the section.[[User:VeNoo|VeNoo]] 07:27, 5 October 2011 (CDT)
