Step VI. Attacking by Super Sandwich Technique
This step is used when the cloud top in Step II reaches over the altitude of 20,000 ft. and the cloud condition is the same as that in Step V. Warm and cold cloud attacking techniques are used at the same time with at least 3 aircrafts. The cold cloud seeding aircraft ejects flares of AgI into the cloud top (at the altitude of 21,500 ft.) while the other two aircrafts use sandwich technique for warm cloud seeding, one dispersing NaCl at the mid-cloud level (about 10,000 ft), and the other one dispersing Urea at the cloud base level. The warm cloud seeding aircraft may disperse Dry Ice of Step IV in order to enhance rainfall. After seeding by the Super Sandwich Attacking Technique, the treated clouds start to produce heavy rain in large amounts for a prolonged period of time.
