"ATAC 22" F.1B on short final for runway 21

On February 25, 2021 this jet would suffer a gear collapse during an emergency landing at Tyndall Air Force Base. During the accident the rear seater would eject as the jet veered off the runway however the front ejection seat did not fire. Both crew members were severely injured but thankfully survived. It is unknown if this jet will ever fly again, anything is possible but the damage sounded substantial. Originally part of the French Air Force before being sold to ATAC

Former Israeli AF serial 822.

This former Israeli Air Force Kfir C2 (serial 928) was sold to the civil market late 2005. The aircraft was incorperated in the civil fleet of ATAC, a commercial company that provides adversary training for the US Forces. It was first carrying a light grey colourscheme but later this three-tone grey was adapted.

One of six former Israeli Air Force Kfir C2s added to the Airborne Tactical Advantage Company fleet. One was lost in March 2012 at NAS Fallon, NV supporting the Naval Strike and Air Warfare Center.

The Airborne Advantage Tactical Company (ATAC a Textron company) provides tactical (aggressor) training with a fleet of over 90 aircraft. The private company provides support to the US Department of Defense in locations world-wide, including the Continental United States, Hawaii and the Western Pacific. They operate with Mirage F1s, L-39s, Hawker Hunters and these beautiful Kfirs. On the exhaust part, clearly Kfir C2 / F-21 is stencilled, the latter referring to the once F-21 fleet of the US Navy. Here N401AX is turning to the runway of Point Mugu, it was closely followed by N402AX that day.
