This is incorrect the grenade you refer to is the Panzerwürfmine. It is hollow charge anti-tank grenade.

It was highly favored by panzer knackers (individual soldiers who hunted tanks) due both to its effectiveness and its lack of signature giving away the thrower.
10. what is the name of the 2 atomics bombs on nagasaki and Hiroshima?
