The ATG Javelin was an American small high-speed personal jet that was developed by the Aviation Technology Group (ATG) prior to its bankruptcy. Planned for FAA certification under 14 CFR part 23, the Javelin had a design resembling a fighter aircraft, an unusual concept for civilian jets.
ATG was leasing approximately 56,000 square feet (5,200 m 2) at Front Range Airport. The first building was a 21,600-square-foot (2,010 m 2) facility, and was being used by ATG Flight Operations to manufacture four FAA conforming Javelin aircraft as well as serving as test facility headquarters.

ATG halted development of the Javelin in 2008 due to a lack of funds.
