I don't think the Air Force really cares about your civilian ratings or ATP. Undergraduate pilot training is designed for guys with little to no flying experience.
The navy cares about civilian ratings. You still have to meet and compete on all the other points, but having a few hundred or 1000 hours is a good indicator of trainability.
