Tunes three-wheeler for raid (3,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

air strike

'raid' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'tunes three-wheeler' is the wordplay.
'tunes' becomes 'airs' (air can mean a piece of music).
'three-wheeler' becomes 'trike' (tricycle).
'airs'+'trike'='AIR-STRIKE'

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for air strike that I've seen before include "shot from above" , "makes flight impossible?" , "Bombing attack" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
