The term originated in Naval usage but was carried over to aircraft. In French , ''sortie'' literally means "go out." It has evolved to mean a short period of conflict, as in the time when the vehicles and vessels are away from their carrier or local berth. In Siege Warfare , a ''sortie'' can be launched against the besiegers by the defenders, often through a Sally Port . EXTERNAL LINKS |
