- Also see: Maneuver (disambiguation) for related useages of the term.
Evasive maneuvers are a sequence of defensive movements employed by starship commanders to evade enemy weapons fire or capture. These movements were specified by predefined or on the spot course changes. Although each race uses different terminology for their evasive maneuvers, the tactics remain the same.
An example of this is the Starfleet maneuver "pattern delta" which is to simply a manuver of rocking the ship hard from port to starboard. Evasive "pattern delta 5" is used keep attacking ships off balance. (DS9: "Shattered Mirror", "The Search, Part I")
In contrast to evasive patterms, offensive movements such as attack patterns or tactical patterns are instances where a starship commander intends to engage the enemy in a confrontation, rather than evade. These patterns are known as standard maneuvers.
