UNKNOWN YUGO Grenade, similar RAPIDOVKA

UNKNOWN YUGO Grenade, similar RAPIDOVKA

There are a couple grenade-types which are SIMILAR (only) to the RAPIDOVKA-Type
(but not same or from the same mould).

Most recently, the UNKNOWN grenade was made in Croatia, but this is only an assumption
and I would be glad if anybody could help with more solid information on name and place
of factory, period of manufacture, foto of the complete item with fuze.

I do apreciate any help getting more details, and want to thank you already here for your
support.

DIMENSIONS of UNKNOWM-Type:
a.) maximum outside diameter [mm] = 57
b.) total length without fuze [mm] = 84
c.) weigth of empty grenade-body [gram] = 339
d.) material: cast steel

In the first fotos you see some already known and identified types compared with my
latest find that (at least for me) still a unidentified type:

1. Left to Right: RAPIDOVKA-2, RAPIDOVKA-3, UNKNOWN, LJEVAONICKA-5

2. Bottom-Side, Left to Right: RAPIDOVKA-2, RAPIDOVKA-3, UNKNOWN, LJEVAONICKA-5

View attachment 88347

3. Thread/ Screw, Left to Right: RAPIDOVKA-3, RAPIDOVKA-2, UNKNOWN, LJEVAONICKA-5

View attachment 88348

All the four have a standard (not a REVERSE) Screw.
RAPIDOVKA-3 has a thread for the VBR-75 Practice-thread (converted to live)
RAPIDOVKA-2 has a thread which is much bigger than RAPIDOVKA-3
LJEVAONICKA-5 has a thread for the VBR-75 Practice-thread (converted to live)
UNKNOWN has a thread which is again bigger than RAPIDOVKA-2 (see the foto below,
for the purpose of comparing I did put the fuze of RAPIDOVKA-2 into UNKNOWN-Type)
