This is the third version of grenades made in PROGRES factory during year 1991. After complains from the Croatian soldiers that JASKANKA 2 is too heavy to be thrown far enough, the factory decided to make a similar but smaller model, with the same type of the fuze used in JASKANKA 2. The body was made smaller, but with more of square shaped fragments from the outside surface of the grenade body.
