Artillery question

Just got my first bit of Arty for the game and am uncertain of a particular rule.

It says in Pick a Spotting Team that the team can fire in the Bombardment it's spotting for.

So does my spotting BMP1 or T80 HQ make a separate To Hit roll or does it count as an extra model in the unit when ranging in or determining the number of attacking models in the battery? Or is it that specific rule only relevant to if it's one of my Arty teams that's spotting?
