U.S.Golden Dome Missile Defense Shield

“On Tuesday, [May 20], [Defense] Secretary [Pete] Hegseth joined [President Donald J. Trump] in the Oval Office to announce the Golden Dome missile defense shield,” said Assistant to the Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs and Senior Advisor Sean Parnell during the Weekly Sitrep video. “This bold initiative represents a historic investment in American security and fulfills our duty to protect the homeland.”
The Golden Dome will be similar to Israel’s Iron Dome defense system, which is designed to protect against inbound missile attacks.
The president announced that an architecture has been selected for the system, which will use next-generation technologies across land, sea and space, including space-based sensors and interceptors.
“The Golden Dome for America is a game changer. It’s a generational investment in the security of America and Americans,” Hegseth told the president. “It’s an honor to be a part of this bold initiative. We’re going to get to work on it.”
Trump said the Golden Dome should be complete in three to four years.
