RDG-1 Smoke is the VC smoke grenade. It creates a smoke screen for crossing open ground, breaking sightlines, or covering a retreat.
In-Game Function
RDG-1 Smoke is thrown like a grenade and produces smoke after a short fuse. It has a smoke radius of 500 and lasts 10 seconds. The available smoke colors are white and dark gray. It is available to the VC Assault, Medic, Gunner, and Sniper classes.
HISTORY
The real RDG-1 was a Soviet hand smoke grenade developed during World War II. It was designed in Leningrad during 1941, when Soviet forces needed simple smoke devices that could be produced quickly and used by individual soldiers.
The RDG-1 used a lightweight body and smoke composition rather than a high-explosive fragmentation charge. Sources describe white and dark smoke versions, with the smoke used for local concealment, masking movement, or obscuring enemy observation.
By the Vietnam War, the RDG-1 was already an older design, with the RDG-2 having largely replaced it in Soviet service. Because documentation around exact Vietnam-era use is limited, the history here describes the Soviet smoke grenade behind the name without treating it as proof of common battlefield issue in Vietnam.
