Inspired by the “iron dome” in Israel, Donald Trump announced the establishment of the “golden dome”. An anti-missile shield which should be operational by the end of the mandate of the President of the United States.
It will be a defense of “latest” says Donald Trump. The President of the United States has announced the construction of the “gold dome”, largely inspired by the “iron dome” in Israel. This anti -missile shield is part of the rise of a geopolitical context tense in front of American opponents who keep rearmade themselves like China, Russia, North Korea or Iran. The “golden dome” should be operational by 2029 (end of Donald Trump’s mandate) and should Cost about $ 175 billion.
“It’s very important for … the survival of our country”
“It is very important for the success and even the survival of our country”assured Donald Trump reports Le Parisien. The objective of the “golden dome” is to protect threats in order to intercept the missiles, rockets and drones from a distant continent or space specified the President of the United States: “Once completed, the gold dome will be capable of intercept missiles even if they are launched on the other side of the earth and even if they are launched from space“” . However, specialists assure that this dome will have to face technical limits. Indeed, these systems as we know them in Israel are designed to be able to intercept short or medium range missiles. They are not designed to intercept intercontinental ballistic missiles.
However, Donald Trump believes it hard as iron. Already announced last January by the United States, Canada said he joined the project In order to take advantage of this 2.0 protection. The “gold dome” will work with the help of a radar responsible for detecting and identifying an enemy shot. Thereafter, a control center will have the task of analyzing the trajectory and the impact point of the shooting before sending a missile to intercept the drone or other. An implementation that “worries” opposing countries like China or Russia whose diplomacy compares this plan “to the star war” Supported by Ronald Reagan during the Cold War: “We consider that this is a new confirmation of the intention of the United States to make space an armed confrontation arena and to deploy weapons there”.
