The invention is that of a remote deployed obscuration system useful in protecting law enforcement and military personnel, for example, against attack. The remote deployed obscuration system comprises an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) such as a drone of any suitable configuration that is equipped with an obscuration means such as one or more smoke grenades. The remote deployed obscuration system is capable of being guided from a remote location via remote-control means in communication with a remote-control receiver of the UAV, which may be used to control UAV flight patterns, actuate the obscuration means, release and reload the obscuration means, and communicate with other remote deployed obscuration systems on a concerted mission. The obscuration means may comprise a quick mount and release mechanism of heat-resistant material to enable remote reloading of grenades, for example, while protecting the UAV against heat discharged therefrom.
