If it is a navy type smoke generator, shouldn't it be recognizable as such by those with more Naval expertise? Also wouldn't such a device look similar regardless of country dictated by its function?
So the first step, to see if the quote is worth anything, is to look for Naval smoke generators, or even start with smoke generators in general.
I'm almost certain that I've seen a photo of an a/c laying an aerial smoke screen, however I'm not sure anymore about the type, it could have been german, but it might have been a Russian or Japanese a/c (the latter probably a E13A). Starting to mix up subjects.
I think looking for similar devices would be a good start to proof or disproof the thesis.
OTOH, it does look similar to the altitude probe I was talking about - visually speaking.
