Description[edit]

The Smoke Arrow Missile was an alternative Arrow IV Artillery missile. Instead of exploding upon impact, these missiles create billowing clouds of obscuring smoke at the target location. The potential to create a literal "fog of war" on the battlefield can be used to hide troop movements and other actions from the enemy.[1]
