Fire support is a military term used to describe the use of weapons and munitions aimed to support friendly forces by engaging, destroying or suppressing enemy forces, facilities, or materiel in combat. It is often provided through indirect fire (artillery) launched from the rear, though the term may also be used for some direct fire or aerial attacks performed by front line units to support other friendly units.
