[PAR] [TLE] Advanced Tactical Fighter [SEP] The Advanced Tactical Fighter (ATF) was a demonstration and validation program undertaken by the United States Air Force to develop a next-generation air superiority fighter to counter emerging worldwide threats, including Soviet Sukhoi Su-27 and Mikoyan MiG-29 fighters under development in the 1980s.  Lockheed and Northrop were selected in 1986 to develop the YF-22 and the YF-23 technology demonstrator aircraft.  These aircraft were evaluated in 1991 and the Lockheed YF-22 was selected and later developed into the F-22 Raptor. [PAR] [TLE] Sukhoi Su-27 [SEP] The Sukhoi Su-27 (Russian: Сухой Су-27 ; NATO reporting name: Flanker; nicknamed "Sushka" in USSR) is a twin-engine supermaneuverable fighter aircraft designed by Sukhoi.  It was intended as a direct competitor for the large United States fourth-generation fighters such as the Grumman F-14 Tomcat and F-15 Eagle, with 3530 km range, heavy aircraft ordnance, sophisticated avionics and high maneuverability.  The Su-27 was designed for air superiority missions, and subsequent variants are able to perform almost all aerial warfare operations.  It was designed with the Mikoyan MiG-29 as its complement.
