Abstract
A method of producing a visible one-way screening smoke is disclosed. The thod includes substantially concurrently deploying into ambient atmosphere a first smoke cloud containing a light absorbent material such as carbon black and a second smoke cloud containing a white nonabsorbent visible screening smoke substantially parallel to and apart from the first cloud so that a two layer obscurant cloud having a one-way visibility effect is created in which visibility is substantially maintained only in the direction of the first cloud through the second cloud.
