In January 2025, President Donald Trump announced a bold initiative to strengthen America’s defenses against a new generation of missile threats with the launch of the "Golden Dome"—a comprehensive missile defense system. Drawing inspiration from Israel’s Iron Dome and echoing the vision of Reagan’s Strategic Defense Initiative, the Golden Dome is designed to create a layered shield capable of intercepting ballistic, cruise, and hypersonic missiles, as well as potential orbital strike systems.
Underscoring the urgency of the mission, President Trump declared that the United States must not fall behind in missile defense capabilities.
To lead the initiative, U.S. Space Force General Michael Guetlein has been appointed project head. He will oversee coordination among military and industry stakeholders, including Lockheed Martin, which is targeting delivery of the first defensive systems by the end of next year—mobilizing American innovation and industrial capacity at an unprecedented scale.
