Grenades and Satchel Charges

Any guru's out there know the explosive power of a typical hand grenade and satchel charge when compared to shell size?

I'm thinking this :

1. Grenade = 60mm mortar shell
2. Satchel Charge = 100mm HE shell

Any suggestions?

What are you looking to do?
 
There are some grenade/mine files in the gun folder but they are for reference only since their range is under 25m.

Under 25m you have to use the close assault attack.  No other weapons will be used.

Just for tanks ... or is an infantry or non-tank target a problem too?

EDIT : Area fire would work ok if the target bubble for tagging a target was smaller ... maybe?

Thanks!

I'm pretty sure you could direct fire it on infantry. A heavy thrown or carried weapon like that should maybe have a shorter range. I think I give the Teller mine and Hafthohlladung a range of 13. But those require them to be placed on their target.
