Experimental Advanced Tactical Fighter

ATF in Formation During Demonstration in Trinity Sector

Background

The ATF design is the brainchild of Christopher Michaelson, a somewhat maverick tactician currently stationed aboard Starbase 118. He designed the craft out of his own nostalgia for the stealth designs of the past and out of a desire to design an airframe that could function in an atmosphere and be used in ground support roles.

Warp

The ATF is capable of reaching a max warp velocity of 9.1, owing to its aft integrated nacelle/flight stabilization structure. The horizontal stabilizers in effect serve as compact warp nacelles while in space and as standard horizontal stabilizers while in an atmosphere.
