Fire Support Element

A Fire Support Element (FSE) is a specialized team within the military that coordinates and manages the use of various weapons, like artillery and mortars, to support ground troops. Its role is to identify targets and call in indirect fire to weaken or destroy enemy forces, allowing the soldiers to advance or defend more effectively. The FSE ensures that fire is accurate, timely, and coordinated with other operations, acting as a bridge between the combat units and the weapons that provide indirect fire support on the battlefield.
