US President Donald Trump presented the details of the project for the creation of the missile defense system Golden Dome.
It is known that its construction will be completed before the end of his term, that is, within three years.
The project is inspired by Israel’s Iron Dome system but will be much larger, capable of intercepting hypersonic and ballistic missiles, the US president said.
“When completed, the Golden Dome will be capable of intercepting missiles, even if they are launched from other parts of the world,” Trump said.
The cost of the project is estimated at $175 billion, and the development will be led by General Michael Getline of the US Space Force.
Major defense companies, including Elon Musk’s SpaceX, are expected to get the development contract.
Some experts express doubts about the cost and timing of the realization, suggesting that the real price could be much higher and the timing longer, writes CNN.
Earlier, it was reported that the construction of this system was criticized by Russia and China for the fact that it provokes an arms race in space.
