160. Pistol Rocket Signal Mk 1
Mod 2 is similar in construction to Pistol Rocket Signal Mk 1, Comet as
described under Submarine Pyrotechnics in paragraph 95. Signal Mk 1 Mod 2
produces a chameleon signal consisting of three parachute-borne stars which
burn suc-cessively in three colors. Each star burns for approximately seven
seconds before the next color ignites, resulting in a total burning time for
the signal of 21 seconds. The sig-nal is fired from Pyrotechnic Pistol
AN-M8, or Submarine Rocket Pistol Mk 1, full instruc-tions for which will be
found in paragraphs 101 to 105, in the section on Submarine Pyro-technics.
