Anti-Terrorist Unit Lučko (ATU Lučko) (Croatian: Antiteroristička jedinica Lučko; ATJ Lučko), also known as the Lučko Anti-Terrorist Unit (Croatian: Lučko Antiteroristička jedinica; Lučko ATJ) is the police tactical unit of the Croatian Police stationed in Lučko near Zagreb, the capital of Croatia. Initially distinguishing itself in the Croatian War of Independence, it has gone on to become Croatia's leading police tactical unit. Like all police units in the country, it is under the command of the Ministry of the Interior. It is a member of the ATLAS Network, an association of European police tactical units.
Several of its operators have gone on to achieve notability, including Croatian mixed martial arts fighter Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipović.
