Barrage (5)

I think it could be either:

salvo

flood

'barrage' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for salvo that I've seen before include "Discharge of weapons in unison" , "Artillery salute" , "Burst of rapid fire" , "Barrage" , "Sudden round of applause" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times, The New York Times and The Times.
