Abstract

Formal requirements for naval surface fire support (NSFS) — a way for the U.S. Navy to provide the equivalent of artillery support for forces operating ashore — are sometimes vague. For that reason, RAND researchers conducted an assessment of these requirements and programs and developed recommendations for changes to these requirements. Researchers also examined possible technological investments and solutions that could be considered by the Navy.
