A Counter-Battery (CB) mission is:

Counter-Battery missions aim to diminish the enemy’s indirect-fire threat by finding their artillery positions and applying fires to suppress or destroy those systems. This involves detecting and locating enemy tubes or launchers (often using specialized sensors and observers) and then quickly directing fires to neutralize or destroy them. The goal is to reduce the enemy’s ability to threaten friendly forces with indirect fire, improving safety and freedom of maneuver for our units. This isn’t about building fortifications, negotiating ceasefires, or improving communications—those are separate tasks unrelated to neutralizing artillery assets.
