Lampare

From PyroGuide

Navigation: Home -> Back

A aerial salute shell containing a burst charge of flash powder that sits under a container of liquid fuel, usually diesel fuel or kerosene, to produce a fireball in the sky.

So-called 'stealth-lampare', which produces the fireball without the loud report of a traditional lampare, uses a solid-state mixture of powdered naphthalene and black powder. See skylighter's article.
