A strategic military maneuver much like the Pincer maneuver with a few exceptions. The Penetration Attack goes straight through the enemies flanks, and once through, each flank will turn and attack the opponet's rear. Alexander the Great once did a penetration attack. Though observers of Alexander the Great said this was quite an accident on account that the penetration attack was conceived many years after Alexander's time.
