Which flare type burns 6-10 seconds and emits green, red, and white?

• A. Star Parachute
• B. Star Cluster
• C. Smoke parachute
• D. Flares

Answer: (B)

Think in terms of how long the device burns and the colors it shows. A star cluster is made of multiple small flare stars that ignite together to produce a bright, multi-color burst. It’s designed to give a quick, dense display that lasts about six to ten seconds, and you’ll see a mix of green, red, and white in that one burst. That specific short, tri-color signature matches what the question describes.

The other options don’t fit as neatly: a star parachute is a single-color flare released on a parachute and typically used for extended illumination rather than a short, multi-color burst; a smoke parachute emits colored smoke rather than bright colored flashes; generic flares can come in various colors but don’t inherently deliver the same six-to-ten second multi-color burst.
