Coup De Vitesse Honorverse Coup de vitesse is a fictional martial art that is practiced by Honor Harrington in the Honorverse, a series of books by David Weber. Coup de vitesse is a fusion of several western and oriental martial arts, developed primarily as a hard style where emphasis is placed on offense sometimes at the expense of defense, resulting in a very brutal and effective style. Coup de vitesse lacks the elegance of judo or aikido. It was an offensive hard style which borrows from every marshal art, from savate to t'ai chi, and distilled them all down into sheer brutality. As of War of Honor, Honor Harrington is ranked 8th level black belt (the highest rank is 9th) and often uses her skills to dispatch enemies that underestimate her.
