Lasers, space radars, missile interceptors: Defense leaders lay out vision for Trump's 'Golden Dome' project
Fox News
How would President Donald Trump's "Golden Dome" work? Experts say it will entail space-based radars, missile interceptors and laser weapons around the U.S.
But Israel is roughly the size of New Jersey, so a dome of protection could prove far more daunting for the much larger land mass of the U.S. And the threats to Israel usually come from its neighbors, who use short-range weapons. America's foes — North Korea, Iran, Russia and China — are half a world away and armed with intercontinental ballistics missiles (ICBMs) and hypersonics, all factors that make the project more challenging for a nation on the size and scale of the U.S.
So questions remain. Will the Golden Dome encompass the entire country, including Hawaii, Alaska and U.S. military bases in locations like Guam? Would it be able to protect against short-range missiles, long-range missiles, unmanned and manned aircraft?
