The plasma grenade is a thrown explosive in Fallout 3.
Characteristics[]
The plasma grenade is a magnetically-sealed plasma delivery unit, with detonating explosives, which creates a large blast of green superheated plasma on detonation. There is a high chance to cripple limbs and a critical hit will reduce the target to green goo, even though thrown grenade criticals deal no extra damage.

Bugs[]
A glitch will sometimes occur that will cause an unlimited amount of plasma grenades to not be thrown regularly, but to be reloaded like a 10mm pistol. Unequipping it will cause this glitch to stop. It can only be thrown outside of V.A.T.S. in this case.[verified]
