The only exception is when the hand grenades are replaced by the XM148 grenade launcher on a CAR-15. They act as they do in Battlefield 1942. The Americans and South Vietnamese use the Mk. II whilst the North Vietnamese and Viet Cong use the Type 67 (a Chinese copy of the M24 Stielhandgranate). Each Kit with hand grenades carries a maximum of 4 grenades.

World War II Mod[]
In the World War II Mod, Grenades are issued to all kits except for the Engineer's loadout containing the TNT and Wrench. They have the same stats and performance from the base game, and use the same models; the NVA grenades are used by the Imperial Japanese Army, whilst the American grenades are used by the US Marines. By default, each soldier starts with four grenades, but the second Assault loadout with a semi-automatic rifle starts with two more for a total of six.

Trivia[]
In Battlefield Vietnam's WWII mod, the Imperial Japanese Army character models clearly show Type 97 grenades strapped on their belts, despite using Stielhandgranaten.
Because Battlefield Vietnam features different loadouts for each faction, this list may not be specific enough. Please see each faction's respective page for information on individual weapon kits and loadouts.
