I have two types of V40 grenades - some are pure Dutch and do not have any English writing on the bottom. The others appear to be for US military and have in yellow paint on the OD grenade in a circular pattern on the bottom: grenade, hand, frag V40
LOT-NWM-12-70
Here is a picture of my V40 grenades that shows the Dutch one on the left with no lettering and then the US Army ones with the yellow writing as described above on the bottom of them.
Therefore, it looks like the designation adopted by the U.S was V40.
Here is another picture of all grenades used in Vietnam by Spec Ops to include the old WWII pineapple grenade, the lemon grenade, the 40 mm blooper grenade, the baseball grenade, and the V40 Dutch grenade. Underneath the US grenades is a Chicom NVA grenade http://images.andale.com/f2/107/100/6966828/2007/8/15/Collection_of_SOG_Grenades.jpg
