Шаблон:Infobox weapon

The Brügger & Thomet GL06 is a dedicated stand-alone shoulder-fired [[40 mm grenade#40×46 mm LV (40 mm Low Velocity)|40×Шаблон:Convert]] grenade launcher intended for military and police applications.[1]

History

The GL06 was developed in 2006[2] in response to a recent request from the police force of a leading European country which sought to obtain a less-lethal weapon for anti-riot application with the particular need for pin-point accuracy at standoff ranges (beyond Шаблон:Convert for such scenarios) when firing impact rounds. The Thun-based Brügger & Thomet (B&T) company provided its client with both a weapon and a special round, with the added benefit of compatibility with a wide array of lethal and less-lethal ammunition produced in the Шаблон:Convert low-velocity class.

Design

The GL06 is a stand-alone shoulder-firing weapon intended for military and police applications. A special "less-lethal" version of GL06 was produced as the LL06. Although the LL06 was marketed as a variation of the GL06, the only difference is the bright yellow color of the frame, compared to the standard black of the GL06. Both weapons are fully capable of firing a complete range of lethal and less-lethal 40×Шаблон:Convert ammunition.

The GL06 is lighter and more compact than other stand-alone weapons of the same class (such as the US M79 or German HK69A1), yet it is capable of greater accuracy, tactical flexibility and has good ergonomics.Шаблон:Citation needed

Production

The GL06 is also produced by four different manufacturers around the world.[2]
