RAPID ASSAULT TACTICS (R.A.T.) is a self-defense system based on the formless form of JEET-KUN-DO. JKD utilizes all combative disciplines and is bound by none. This was Bruce Lee's philosophy at the time he created JKD's tactics.

R.A.T. was developed by third generation Bruce Lee student Paul Vunak for the NAVY SEALS program. This system has been adapted to combat the typical "STREET FIGHTER". The R.A.T. gives you the advantage before the confrontation ever begins. Few defensive strategies are capable of ending a conflict in five seconds or less and even fewer can defeat multiple attackers, the R.A.T. can do both and then some. The simplicity of it's techniques and principles inspired Defender Solutions to develop the system of "Cocoondo" which honors JKD tradition and it's effectiveness.
