Warhead 9M33M3 missile: weight = 15 kg with 7 kg of explosive and 1700 fragments
Any unclassified source of that?
The manual mentions 14.27kg for the warhead. (on page 177) If the explosive is ~7kg, than the fragment weight is approx ~4g.
Pretty realistic number.
1700 fragment would be deadly in 14m radius, while 1250 would be deadly within 12m...
