capacitor to overcome voltage source limitation

Hello,i need to drive 5  mosfets as shown below.
Each mosfet draws 15A when the pulse opens the mosfet.
My power supply is gives the 48V but only 3.3A,If I understand correctly I need to put very high decoupling capacitors at the voltage source  so I will have in that short period of time the 5*15=75A .

My V4 power supply in real life can supply only 4A as shown in the link and datasheet below.
When i put a 10uF capacitor i cant see any higher amount of current.
how do i properly simulate this capacitor phenomena In LTspice
Thanks.
