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.
“Once fully constructed, the Golden Dome will be capable of intercepting missiles even if they are launched from other sides of the world, and even if they are launched from space, and we will have the best system ever built,” he said.
