SQF Syntax has been introduced in Operation Flashpoint: Resistance v1.85 and is the Arma series' main scripting language since. The main differences with SQS Syntax are:

• execVM is used (instead of exec for SQS)
• Every command has to end with a semicolon (c;)
• the following commands disappeared:
  • goto/#label (Note, # is a command in itself in Arma 3)
  • exit - a partial SQF equivalent can be found in exitWith
• Line returns do not impact code
• SQF can return a variable, where SQS cannot
