ATF (Advanced Tactical Fighter) is a computer game released in 1988 for the ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64 and Amstrad CPC by Digital Integration.
The player takes control of Lockheed's YF-22A Advanced Tactical Fighter (the craft which later became the F-22 Raptor) in a fictional war between two rival factions. The in-game world is a nameless collection of islands, which is randomly generated for each game. The fighter can be armed with a combination of cannon rounds (used to destroy enemy aircraft), ASRAAM missiles, and Maverick missiles for destroying ground targets, even those out of visual range.

A head-up display is superimposed on the main screen; this shows engine thrust, the ATF's speed, ground height and altitude, along with the missile system available, direction of flight and a target's range and bearing.
