The '''RG-42''' was a fragmentation grenade designed in the Soviet Union during WWII, when production was not sufficient to supply the original pre-war hand grenades. It was essentially a redesign of the short-lived RG-41 grenade to use the UZRGM universal grenade fuze, also used on the [[F-1 hand grenade]] and later the [[RGD-5]]. The production is a very simple design compared to the complicated [[RGD-33]] stick grenade. After the war, the grenade continued to be produced in Poland and China. It was eventually replaced in Soviet use by the RGD-5, starting in 1954.
