What is the target distance when aiming the LA51 Flash Bang Munitions at a Target of Interest's bow?

The correct target distance for aiming the LA51 Flash Bang Munitions at a Target of Interest's bow is within the range of 30-50 yards. This distance allows for effective deployment of the munitions while still ensuring that the intended effects—such as disorientation and distraction—are achieved without posing excessive risk to the boarding team or the occupants of the vessel.

At this range, the flash bang can effectively produce the loud noise and bright flash intended to distract and disorient individuals without compromising the safety and precision of the operation. Using the munitions beyond this distance may reduce their effectiveness, as the sound and visual impact diminishes as distance increases. Furthermore, deploying flash bangs from too close a distance could lead to unintended consequences, such as causing injury or confusion among the team or the target.

Thus, the choice of 30-50 yards strikes a crucial balance, allowing for the deployment to achieve maximum effectiveness while still adhering to safety protocols important for boarding operations.
