Which is NOT a type of attack?
Correct Answer:
Fortified Defense
Explanation:
In military planning, an attack is an offensive action intended to seize, destroy, or compel the enemy to withdraw. A spoiling attack is designed to disrupt the enemy’s preparations and seize the initiative before they can mass forces. A counterattack is launched in response to an enemy attack with the aim of regaining the initiative and terrain. An ambush is an attack launched from concealment to surprise and defeat the enemy quickly. Fortified Defense, however, describes a defensive posture built to hold positions and deter or repel advances. It focuses on preventing enemy action rather than initiating it. So, it is not an attack.
