combat-style

Military-inspired in design

Combat-style describes something designed, executed, or arranged in the manner of military fighting.

It suggests aggressive, tactical, or battle-ready qualities: combat-style boots, combat-style training, a combat-style video game.

The term often markets products or activities that evoke military toughness without actual warfare: The gym offers combat-style fitness classes.
