Description

Secretary of the Air Force Heather Wilson announced in September 2017 inception of the "S&T Strategy 2030" study. The study’s objective is to update the Air Force methods for conducting research and development (R&D) to meet the projected national security challenges of 2030. Secretary Wilson appointed the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) to lead this strategy development. The Air Force’s goals for the study are: 1. Evaluate technical approaches and focus areas to advance the Air Force’s mission through R&D; and 2. Improve Air Force processes and organizational structures to manage early stage research.
