Project Amad (or AMAD Plan, Template:Lang-fa) was a covert Iranian scientific project intended to develop a functioning nuclear warhead. On 30 April 2018, the project details were reported by Israel, but the project and its details were previously known (as far back as 2005) by the IAEA as is shown in the IAEA's 2015 Final Assessment on Past and Present Outstanding Issues regarding Iran’s Nuclear Programme. The IAEA stated on 1 May that it has not received any credible information regarding any Iranian atomic weapons programme after 2009.

U.S. President Donald Trump said it would be a factor in deciding whether to withdraw from the Iran Deal.
