Trump’s New Iron Dome? Musk's SpaceX to Lead Mega-Missile Defense Project | 1000 Satellites Plan Out

Donald Trump has unveiled a visionary missile defense initiative, dubbed the "Golden Dome," aimed at fortifying the United States' defense against potential missile threats. Elon Musk’s SpaceX, in partnership with Palantir and Anduril, is emerging as a front-runner to take on a key role in this mega-missile defense project. The ambitious plan includes deploying over 1,000 satellites equipped with advanced tracking technology to detect and intercept incoming missiles worldwide. SpaceX has proposed a "subscription service" model for the government to pay for access to the system, bypassing the need for outright ownership, although the proposal has sparked debates over the risks of relying on a private company for defense upgrades and pricing control. #DonaldTrump #ElonMusk #TrumpGoldenDome #GoldenDomeMissile #TrumpMissileDefense #GoldenDomeUSA #GoldenDomeDefense #TrumpDefensePlan #USGoldenDome #GoldenDomeSystem #TrumpSpaceX #GoldenDomeProject #AmericaDefense #GoldenDomeForAmerica #TrumpDefenseInitiative #USMissileDefense #GoldenDomeVsIronDome Also Read China Brushes Off US Tariff Threats, Warns Against 'Numbers Game' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/china-brushes-off-us-tariff-threats-warns-against-numbers-game-4126079.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Administration Freezes USD 2.2 Billion In Grants To Harvard University :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-administration-freezes-usd-2-2-billion-in-grants-to-harvard-university-4124075.html?ref=DMDesc US Teen Nikita Casap Accused Of Killing Parents To Fund Plot To Assassinate Donald Trump :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-teen-nikita-casap-accused-of-killing-parents-to-fund-plot-to-assassinate-donald-trump-4123199.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~GR.124~HT.410~
