It was almost as if the thing were taking evasive action!

If there had been no response, he would have taken evasive action.

If that were to happen, she would have to take evasive action, and quickly.

However, thanks to my evasive action it did not happen.

There was, already, no effective evasive action he could take.

And I couldn't take any evasive action, none at all.

I want to fire on his estimated position, then take evasive action.

Then it banks hard right as if taking evasive action.

He could neither move to attack nor take evasive action.

This time, the captain didn't have to call for evasive action.
