Secret Weapon...?

Hey I was pokeing around in the data\cfg\"UserPlayerContext" folder and came across these entrys in the "Ammunition.upc" file , and was wondering what is these used for? I was thinking the "dev guys" left our star shells behind at the docks in SH4?

[Ammunition 15]
ID=SignalFlare
NameDisplayable=Signal Flare
Type=AmmoDecoy
Subtype=FlareUS
AmmunitionIntervalOptionCurrent=19000101,19991231, 0
AmmunitionIntervalOptions1=19410101,19461231,0
Volume=0.125000
PackSize=1

[Ammunition 16]ID=FakeScopeHead
NameDisplayable=Fake Periscope Head
Type=AmmoDecoy
Subtype=ScopeHead
USAmmunitionIntervalOptionCurrent=19000101,1999123 1,0
AmmunitionIntervalOptions1=19410101,19461231,0
Volume=0.125000
PackSize=1

And as for the fake scope ... Who's up for modding a button to deploy the thing ..?(kidding) ... Thought I'd ask , thought it was a (dev joke) thrown in for the modder guys ....

Just finished reading a book about British Subs in WW2. They would drop off/launch fake periscope decoys to keep the Germans busy and using up fuel and ammo.
