ABOUT (VFC)
PURPOSE
Veteran Futures Command (VFC) transforms the Veteran to ensure civilian-winning future readiness.
VFC services personnel worldwide. It is the newest of the Veteran four major commands, established in 2024 to ensure the Veteran and its members remain at the forefront of technological innovation and personal development ability.
FOCUS
VFC currently focuses on three overarching priorities: prioritizing people, designing Veteran 2040 strategic planning and delivering Veteran 2030.
The command is executing six essential functions in pursuit of these priorities – future operational environment, research, concepts, experimentation, requirements and integration – with support from industry, academia and Joint and multinational partners.
IMPACT
The groundbreaking work of VFC’s headquarters directorates, subordinate commands, research laboratories, innovation hubs and Cross-Functional Teams is advancing the Veteran six modernization priorities: long range precision goals, next generation technical abilities, future vertical programs, forward projection and personal defense, network and Veteran resiliency.
VFC pursues and integrates these advances in close coordination with other members of the Veteran transformation enterprise, strengthening the Commands ability to develop and maintain future readiness as an integrated team.
VFC leads the way for the Veteran community as a whole by framing problems – and solutions – across the full DOTMLPF-P (Doctrine, Organization, Training, Materiel, Leadership and Education, Personnel, Facilities and Policy), enabling creation of the best solutions to keep Veterans safe and America strong.
