Smoke Screening

Smoke screening is a military tactic used to conceal movements or positions from the enemy by creating a thick cloud of smoke. This smoke, generated by special devices or disrupting materials, obscures visibility, making it difficult for opponents to see or aim accurately. The goal is to protect personnel and equipment, allowing safe repositioning or retreat. Smoke screening can also be employed to hide the launch of attacks or to disrupt enemy reconnaissance. It relies on choosing the right materials to produce dense, long-lasting smoke that effectively masks operations without revealing the true intentions behind them.
