Trump Announces He Has Chosen Architecture for ‘Golden Dome’ Defense Shield
President Donald Trump, flanked by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, revealed Tuesday the administration has selected an architecture for the “Golden Dome” national defense shield he promised on the campaign trail.
Trump provided the update during a press conference in the Oval Office.
“Today, I’m pleased to announce that we have officially selected an architecture for this state-of-the-art system that will deploy next-generation technologies across the land, sea, and space, including space-based sensors and interceptors,” Trump said, noting that Canada wishes to be included in the project.
“So we’ll be talking to them. They want to have protection also,” he added. “So, as usual, we help Canada, do the best we can.”
Trump estimates the Golden Dome “should be fully operational before” his term ends.
