T13 Beano
The T13 "Beano" was an American fragmentation grenade designed near the end of the Second World War. The T13 was designed to mimic the shape and weight of a baseball to simplify ease of use, as it was thought that most GIs would already be capable of throwing such an object long distances and with good accuracy. The T13 "Beano" utilized an impact fuze and was armed only when thrown a decent distance, which was intended to reduce friendly casualties. The "Beano" was armed by pulling the pin whilst holding the safety cap in place with the fingers (as one would hold a baseball) and thrown, having an effective radius of 20m (66 ft).
Despite the Office of Strategic Services' best efforts, however, the T13 was unreliable and just as dangerous to the thrower as the recipient, causing numerous injuries and casualties during tests. Although a shipment was sent to Europe for field evaluations, it is unclear if the T13 was ever used in combat.
