Flashbang

Besides guns, one of the major non-lethal weapons used by the SDU and other famous CT units in the world, is the flashbang. Flashbang is used in the same way as a grenade is used, by pulling out the safety clip and throw the flashbang to the proximity of the victims. Most flashbangs are made with steel cases and use 1.5 second fuse delays, so that the flashbangs do not activate immediately after pulling out the safety clips. Most of them produce loud noises around 175dB noise level, as well as lights as bright as 2-6 million Candelas. The SDU uses several different flashbangs, some of them can flash multiple times and reused by replacing the fuses.
