      With advances in technology, Singapore Technologies Kinetics (ST Kinetics) is able to equip the infantry squad with a comprehensive suite of solution to deal with new threats. Complementing the existing range of 40mm low velocity ammunition, ST Kinetics now offers new LV ammunition.

      not offically anyway...

      the cost per round is probably higher, but then smart airbursts are far more lethal then your usual 40mm grenade (supposedly 500 percent more lethal against targets in cover, if the stats from the OICWs air bursting munitions are to go by.).
