Which type of flare is not listed among the types of flares?

Rocket Parachute
Multi Star Flares
Hand Flares
Signal Lantern Flares

The correct answer is: Signal Lantern Flares

Explain The two main types of flares are distress flares and signal flares. Flares can be further classified into different types, such as rocket parachute flares, multi-star flares, and hand flares. However, signal lantern flares are not mentioned among the various types of flares. This is because signal lanterns are used as visual distress signals, not as flares. They are typically powered by batteries or LEDs, instead of explosive charges like traditional flares. Therefore, signal lantern flares do not fall under the main categories of flares and are not listed as a type of flare.
