Make low attack in first RAF exercise (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

strafe

'make low attack' is the definition.
(attack with low-flying aircraft)

'in first raf exercise' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'STRAFE' is hidden within 'first raf exercise'.

(Other definitions for strafe that I've seen before include "Attack with fire from a low-flying plane" , "low attack" , "Shoot at from plane" , "Pepper" , "Attack with fire from aircraft" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
