Cochrane deceleration maneuver
The Cochrane deceleration maneuver was a classic and well-known battle tactic in the 23rd century.

In the 2260s, Captain James T. Kirk used the Cochrane deceleration maneuver to defeat a Romulan vessel near Tau Ceti. Spock later used this information to quiz Captain Kirk and Garth of Izar, who had utilized cellular metamorphosis to take on Kirk's form, in an effort to determine which individual was actually Captain Kirk.
