Tartarus Attack Pattern was a maneuver employed in space warfare by the Imperial Navy throughout the Galactic Civil War. Functioning as a component of Formation Besh, the strategy involved exiting hyperspace directly above an adversary. This was done after a nearby starfighter squadron confirmed their location, serving the dual purpose of achieving surprise and preventing the enemy's escape through hyperspace.
During the Battle of Turkana, Captain Lennox utilized this strategy. He deployed his group of Star Destroyers to assault Rebel Star Cruisers.
