Project Alpha (military)

Project Alpha is a U.S. Joint Forces Command rapid idea analysis group created to "identify high-impact ideas from industry, academia and the defense community that could transform the Department of Defense into an organization better equipped to deal with the uncertain landscape of the future."

Project Alpha was discontinued as part of an internal reorganization of U.S. Joint Forces Command's Joint Experimentation Directorate.
