wolfpack tactics
U-boat group hunting
Wolfpack tactics refers to a coordinated military strategy, originally used by German U-boats in World War II, where multiple submarines spread out to locate enemy convoys, then converged to attack in overwhelming numbers.
The term now applies to any coordinated group assault: The defense attorneys used wolfpack tactics to discredit the witness.
In nature, it describes how wolves hunt cooperatively to bring down prey larger than any individual could manage alone.
