Airborne Tactical Advantage Company began flight operations in 1997 providing outsourced military training and flight test for the US Navy under the Commercial Air Services (CAS) contract as a subcontractor, one of the world leaders of outsourced military airborne training using business jets and propeller aircraft. To date, ATAC has performed flight operations for the US Navy, US Air Force and Air National Guard in the air-to-ship, air-to-air and research & development capacities. Currently operating six
F-21 Kfirs and two F-35 Draken fighters, ATAC has paved the way for contracted services to the United States and other allied military forces
