2 seperate rounds.

Look at this video, RAF procedure during BoB was not to mix ammo types in the same gun, so you see the smoke tracer (at least 3 guns) and the light tracer (1 Gun). Notice that the 'fire' tracer doesn't produce any smoke.

Also note that the smoke does not extend that far out from the aircraft like the normal tracer does...
