A military study group spent three years trying to figure out what will entice more women to enlist in the Canadian Armed Forces.

My most recent assignment to a Tiger Team was to an EW (Electronic Warfare) mission planning Tiger Team for the Growler, four years ago.  It was indeed composed of engineering and pilot subject matter experts focused on a full analysis of issues involved with improving planning cycle times to speed up AEA combat sortie generation.

The term isn't a joke in aerospace engineering circles. Seems it has been thoroughly co-opted by non engineering communities.

I was on the Tiger Team for JPADS. The term has become ubiquitous in military as well as civilian usage.

Been on a few Tiger Teams at work. Seems all the Six Sigma types love to use them.

Still curious what exact relevance this has to CAP
