The Grenade Hand Anti-tank No. 75 also known as the Hawkins grenade was a British anti-tank hand grenade used during World War II. It was one of a number of grenades developed for use by the British Army and Home Guard in the aftermath of the Dunkirk evacuation. The grenade first appeared in 1942 and was designed to be more versatile than previous grenades such as the Grenade Hand Anti-tank No. 73 and the Grenade Hand Anti-Tank No. 74.
