How to simulate smoke (flash) from a main gun firing on AFV.......

Hi guys,

Want to show a main gun firing on an open backed hull down SPG. The barrel will be recoiled, with the crew bracing/holding ears etc. There will be supporting infantry firing away dug in alongside. Anyway whats the best way to simulate the smoke surrounding the muzzle/front of hull. Hope to use a light at the muzzle to represent flash too, with maybe the round suspended in the smoke, like a camera still capturing it.

Any help and ideas much appreciated guys.
