Helicopter Smoke Generating Subsystem

The Helicopter Smoke Generating Subsystem is a component of the Chemical Weapons And Equipment supply class within the Weapons supply group. This subsystem is designed to be installed on helicopters and is used to generate smoke for various purposes.

The primary function of the Helicopter Smoke Generating Subsystem is to create a smoke screen to conceal the helicopter's movements and protect it from enemy detection and targeting. The smoke can also be used to mark targets or provide visual signals in tactical operations.

The subsystem typically consists of a smoke generator, a control unit, and associated plumbing and wiring. The smoke generator is responsible for producing the smoke, which is usually generated by burning a specific type of smoke-generating chemical or agent. The control unit allows the pilot or crew to activate and control the smoke generation process.

The Helicopter Smoke Generating Subsystem is an important tool in military operations, providing a valuable means of protection and tactical advantage. It allows helicopters to operate more effectively in hostile environments by obscuring their location and intentions from the enemy.

It's worth noting that the use of chemical weapons and equipment, including smoke generating subsystems, is subject to international laws and regulations. These laws aim to prevent the use of chemical weapons for harmful purposes and ensure their use is limited to legitimate military operations.
