“The unique thing about rockets and this type of approach is it allows the ability to rapidly converge, or saturate, a lot of firepower to one place. We will use a pod of 30 rockets that would launch one or two per second from a currently fielded launcher. That launcher converges 30 rockets onto one point or one area of the battlefield in a way that increases the ability to saturate the area. What we’ve seen among users around the world is that they don’t shoot many rockets at their max range and want to have more rockets engage targets at shorter ranges” shared Hunter Blackwell, Fire Support Capability Area Lead. “The Army has been developing the Precision Strike Missile, or PrSM, which is two rockets in a pod, and the replacement for the Army’s Tactical Missile System, or ATACMS, the one rocket in a pod system. DSFT is a product that will answer those desires from the user community: to not only deliver more rockets to the battlefield but fired faster and easier for the Soldiers to reload."
