New technologies combine to produce remarkable advances in artillery that enable new tactics ensuring adequate fire support during Marine expeditionary brigade amphibious operations, ship-to-objective maneuver (STOM), distributed operations and high-intensity sustained operations ashore. Such future artillery forces like the high-mobility artillery rocket system (HIMARS) will provide the support that maneuver forces require throughout traditional and irregular operations in the battlespace.
