In military science, defense (or defence) is the art of preventing an attack, or minimizing the damage of an attack, e.g. by preventing an enemy from conquering territory.
Thus, if a party attacks an enemy who is about to attack that party, this could be called defense. However, this leaves room for interpretation.
Typically defensive are e.g. armour and a bunker. Also defensive are guns, rockets, etc. with a range within the party's territory: they can only attack an attacker. If the weapon is mobile it may also be used in an attack, after moving it.
