Wolfpack was a naval strategy where a cluster of submarines would attack ships, just like a pack of wolves attacks their prey. In World War II, the German U-Boats used this tactic during the Battle of the Atlantic. The American submarines also did this against Japanese shipping. Anywhere between 3 and 34 submarines were used in convoys that involved the sinking of a ship.
During the Iraqi War in 2003 the term Wolfpack referred to the American and British submarines working together to launch Tomahawk missiles against Iraqi targets.
Unrestricted submarine warfare is a naval war tactic in which the submarine attacks merchant ship (or any ship not in the navy) without warning. Germany used this tactic on American vessels at the start of WW1, and that is a major reason that the US joined the war effort against the Germans.
The Danes used explosives to blow up their own naval ships during the Battle of Copenhagen in 1801. To prevent the British fleet from capturing their ships, they utilized gunpowder and other explosive materials to destroy their vessels in the harbor. This tactic was part of a larger strategy to deny the enemy access to their naval resources.
One fighting tactic that was used in the Revolutionary was was guerrilla warfare. It's kind of like a hit and run tactic, as in a surprise attack, an ambush, etc.

delaying tactic.
the US used a tactic called "island-hopping". For strategic island targets, aerial and naval bombardment destroyed anything on land. Then troops would invade the island, eventually securing the island from any Japanese pillboxes. If an island was considered of no strategic importance, then a full naval and aerial bombardment would be carried out, until there as nothing much left of the island and then they could move on. That tactic was used all the way to Iwo Jima. From then on, it would be nuclear bomb explosions, or a full-fledged invasion of Japan, that would end the war.

German U-Boats are submarines. In World War 2, the Germans used these submarines to attack in groups of three or more. The Germans called these groups of submarines "wolfpacks". The Americans, British & Canadians also used the name "wolfpack" to refer to a group of German U-Boats.
