Ortillery, a portmanteau of "Orbit" and "Artillery", refers to space-based weapons systems with the ability to attack targets on the planet surface. Ortillery is recurringly an asset of the Allies, reinforced by its association with the GDI in the Tiberium universe, the Americans in Generals and, recently, the Athena Cannon in Red Alert 3 (although the Spy Satellite was an Allied property even before that, making a satellite-based weapon a logical upgrade).

abstract
| - Ortillery, a portmanteau of "Orbit" and "Artillery", refers to space-based weapons systems with the ability to attack targets on the planet surface. Ortillery is recurringly an asset of the Allies, reinforced by its association with the GDI in the Tiberium universe, the Americans in Generals and, recently, the Athena Cannon in Red Alert 3 (although the Spy Satellite was an Allied property even before that, making a satellite-based weapon a logical upgrade). Ortillery requires spacecraft and weapons capable of affecting a target on the planet surface from orbit. It may even be desired to use orbital weapons against targets in outer space.
