1. A multiport pod missile system, comprising:
a plurality of pipe sections securable together to form a conduit for transporting a high-pressure fluid in a direction of travel;
a plurality of missile pods secured at a plurality of points between the plurality of pipe sections forming the conduit, the pods comprising four or more input ports extending radially outwardly at an angle from a perimeter of each pod, all input ports being aligned around the perimeter of each pod in a single plane; and
a plurality of high-pressure fracturing pumps connected to each pod; and
wherein a selected spacing between each of the plurality of pods is configured according to the number of input ports on each pod and an optimal distance between each pod's plurality of high-pressure fracturing pumps that reduces turbulent flow within the conduit.
