Former U.S. President Donald Trump has officially announced the launch of the Golden Dome, a next-generation missile defense system aimed at protecting the United States from modern threats such as hypersonic weapons and intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs).
🛡️ What Is the Golden Dome?
The Golden Dome is a proposed space-based missile shield, inspired by Israel’s Iron Dome but equipped with far more advanced features, including:
AI-powered targeting systems
Satellite-based threat detection
Laser and kinetic interceptors
“This is our modern-day Manhattan Project,” said Trump. “America will not only lead in innovation but in security.”
🔍 Project Highlights
đź’° Budget: $175 billion (initial phase), expected to reach $542 billion
🚀 Deployment Target: Fully operational by 2028
🧠Lead Agency: U.S. Space Force under Gen. Michael Guetlein
🤖 Partners: SpaceX, Anduril, Palantir Technologies
🌍 Why It Matters
With rising global threats from countries like China, Russia, and North Korea, the Golden Dome is expected to become a critical line of defense for the U.S. homeland.
Defense analysts believe this project could redefine global missile defense strategy in the coming decade.
