I'd like to suggest the implementation of smoke grenades for armored vehicles capable of using them. They work as a smoke screen for the MBT/IFV/APC to retreat to a safe position, or to break line of sight from the enemy. IR weapons can lose track if one vehicle uses this, and optically guided ATGMs have a hard time hitting one target behind the smoke screen.

Smoke grenades was implemented on some vehicles many years ago on AI and CA driable vehicles, if that not working, Will be a bug. I'm not on home, but can check them.

possible, but the smoke is not very dense and you cannot trigger it when you are driving the vehicle

By some tank simulators, and other data, only the Commander can launch smoke grenades.

Hi @Silver_Dragon! Yes, I'm aware of that effect. But it was only triggered by damage caused to the vehicle. What I have in mind is something like "Press G to Smoke Grenade", and you have a smoke screen in front of you for a couple of seconds. 
As for only the Commander being able to use it, if we got the ability to share command on the same vehicle, sure. But at the moment, the player is doing all tasks simutaneously (minus reloading). It would be amazing, thou, to have that option (ie one player as driver, one as gunner and another as commander).

Just a small addition, The ability to fire either left or right smoke banks.  
This was a feature to British tanks for sure, others would need to be investigated.  

Also the ability to use smoke generators from either exhaust.

Finally if you really want the trifecta of smoke.

A smoke projectile.  Being able to fire smoke for target identification, or using smoke to hide your movement with tactical placement.
