Apparently the frag grenades don't use standard explosives (lemmy.world)

I don't know... if we assume 8.8oz total for matter and antimatter together. All of that mass will be annihilated and converted into energy. I calculate that would yield 22,421,767,037 MJ, let's say 22,000 TJ. According to wikipedia, Little Boy had a 63 TJ yield, so this grenade is around 350 times that.

If it was 8.8 ounces of antimatter, it would combine with 8.8 ounces of normal matter to convert a total of 17.6 ounces of mass into energy. That would result in like 700 Hiroshima's total yield.
