Structure of fire support elements
Fire support elements follow a three-tier hierarchy to enable scalable and organized delivery of indirect fire.
- Battery: Coordinates up to three Sections; highest level of fire support control.
- Section: Controls two to three Gun Teams; operates semi-independently within the Battery.
- Gun Team: Operates a single mortar or artillery piece; composed of a Gunner and Assistant.
This structure supports scaling from squad-level support to full Batteries. The highest level of commander present takes command, Battery -> Section -> Gunner.
