It is not a barrage in and of itself.
All available indirect fire units within range will fire at his target. If you have no units on hand, it won't do anything.

Since officer is mention I want to ask, will that ability make nearby friendly arty pieces fire as well or only the ones controlled by the player that has the officer?

Only player controlled.Useful only for mortar spam..or really useful if u are using the joint operations doctrine.

I would say it's quite bad for mortar spam. The mortars take quite some time to set-up, aim, and land. They also have practically no cool down on their barrage anyway and can auto fire. Not really worth the 80 munitions.
It is however quite nice on the panzerwerfer and the howitzer. Those have long cool-down periods that can be filled up with the officers ability. The howitzer can more or less fire 3 barrages back-to-back if you time it right, more if you have ammo to spare.

Yeah, the officer is mostly there to give the passive buff. His barrage only really shines when you have werfers or field howitzers, at which point he can do serious numbers on your opponent by bypassing your usual cooldown restrictions.
In the bygone days of beta, I seem to recall his ability actually called units within 150% of their usual targeting range, or some such. Did I make that up? And is it still a thing?
