President Donald Trump’s ‘Golden Dome’ missile defense project will need a Manhattan Project-style whole-of-government approach, a Space Force general warned.
The ‘Golden Dome’ idea stemmed from Israel's Iron Dome. With the help of the U.S., it employs an invisible boundary that triggers interceptors when short-range missiles are fired toward its territory.
But the Golden Dome has proved a more daunting project for guarding the U.S., which is close to 500 times the size of Israel and would likely be threatened more by long-range than short-range missiles.
