extraction plan

Rescue operation blueprint

An extraction plan is a strategy for removing someone or something from a dangerous or difficult situation.

In military and espionage contexts, it details how operatives will escape hostile territory: The extraction plan called for a helicopter pickup at dawn.

The term extends to any detailed exit strategy—evacuating personnel from a crisis zone, retrieving assets, or even planning how to leave an awkward social situation.
