What kind of ammunition is specifically designed for active fire training that does not penetrate on impact?

Non-lethal training projectiles are specifically designed for scenarios such as active fire training to minimize the risk of injury while effectively simulating real conditions. These projectiles are created to ensure that when they strike an object, they do not penetrate, thereby prioritizing safety during training exercises. Their design allows trainers and trainees to practice skills in a controlled environment without the threats associated with live ammunition.

In contrast, live ammunition is used in actual firearms and poses a significant risk due to its potential to cause serious injury or death upon impact. Blank ammunition, while it generates a sound and muzzle flash similar to live rounds, does not deliver a projectile, which makes it less effective for scenarios that require the users to practice hitting targets or experiencing impact. Explosive rounds are primarily used in combat or demolition contexts and are not suited for training purposes where safety and realistic scenarios are necessary.
