The simultaneous discharge of artillery or firearms (5)

I believe the answer is:

salvo

(Other definitions for salvo that I've seen before include "Firing of guns as a salute" , "Fusillade, volley" , "concentrated fire" , "Burst of firing" , "Simultaneous discharge of weapons" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
