If you ever go to an Airshow and see an aerobatic display, when smoke is used it is usually injected from a separate tank directly into the exhaust, resulting in a nice thick blue-white smoke because it is hot and the smoke burns, in WWII Fighters a shot to the coolant tank could cause loss of glycol(coolant) which might caise a similar condition and the result would be engine overheat, and possibly fire especially if oil and fuel lines were severed and sprayed on hot manifolds and electrical connections.
