Golden Dome Stalls as Trump’s Missile Shield Fails to Take Shape
TL;DR
A year into Trump’s push for a rapid, expansive “Golden Dome” missile-defense system, the plan remains largely unstarted: the Pentagon hasn’t rolled out the architecture or begun spending the roughly $23 billion Congress appropriated, leaving industry frustrated and uncertain about the program’s future amid technical hurdles, secrecy, and political risk; a 2028 space-based interceptor test is planned but details are unclear and ally cooperation adds another layer of complexity.
