Indirect Fires: Shaping the Battlefield of Tomorrow
Fire superiority isn’t just about who shoots first—it’s about range, speed, and adaptability. As conflicts evolve, we must focus on:
? Ammunition & Innovation – Better mortars, rockets, and cannons.
? Rapidly Fielding Mature Platforms – We don’t have time for prolonged development cycles.
? Scaling Loitering Munitions – Stopping threats before they stop us.
Indirect fires are the backbone of modern warfare—what can reach out and kill you, will. The war in Ukraine has reinforced a hard truth: stationary units are targets. If we don’t adapt, we’ll be outgunned and outranged by 2035.
So, how do we maintain the advantage?
?? Extend range and fire on the move.
?? Suppress enemy air defenses to enable CAS and rotary support.
?? Integrate with the full battle ecosystem—FDCs, TOCs, JOCs, and JTACs.
?? Leverage loitering munitions to engage both moving and static threats.
We aren’t the final solution—we’re part of it. Firepower must be scalable, durable, and adaptable to support operations across domains, from conventional warfare to littoral combat.
The battlefield of the future is one where we control the deep fight—not the enemy. Are we ready?
