I believe we'll keep the title there in brackets. One way or another, it's become the popularly known title of this entire program, and is what most people know it best by at this point. For ease of use for those coming in who are not 100% aware of every little detail and exact nuance; it helps direct them to the correct thread.
It being separated in brackets is enough to make it clear that it's not the primary name.

In this case raised, Combat Air Strategy includes funding (time limited, but can of course be renewed) for Team Tempest.
- Team Tempest can, amongst themselves, raise projects for co-operation, or simply bring technology to the table to be informally developed further, perhaps in the form of integration
- there is a Gvmnt mandated project, amongst these others, though. It is called Project Pyramid, and explained upthread.
