Field of fire

Explanation:
http://www.multitran.ru/c/m.exe?a=3&s=field of fire&sc=24&l1...

"Seabee Combat Handbook", vol. 1

Или "sector of fire", но это скорее означает простреливаемую зону для отдельной боевой позиции.

Ещё есть дополнения от одного бывшего военного, отслужившего десять лет во флоте, - по его словам, в США в разных родах войск используют различные термины. Но у Вас, насколько я поняла, речь идёт о советской или российской армии. Или нет?
