Can an iron dome work in the US?
Fox News Older Strategic Analyst, General Jack Keane, unpacked the effort to push the rocket shield of the Iron Dome in the USA to ‘story’.
President Donald Trump The project of the ‘Golden Dome’ defense project will require the effort of the entire Government compared to the Manhattan project for the development of an atomic bomb, according to General Space Force General.
“This is Manhattan Project in order, and the effort will be harmonized from the very top of our government. It will need a national will to connect it all,” said General Michael Guetlein, Vice President of the United States of the US Space Force, said a gathering of experts on defense industry on Wednesday.
The idea of ’Golden Dome’ stemmed from the Iron Dome of Israel. With the help of the US, it uses an invisible limit that triggers intercepted when short-range rockets are fired at its territory.
But There is a golden dome The scary project for guarding the US, which is close to 500 times larger than Israel, has proven and will probably threaten to threaten more short-range rockets.

Guetlein said the project would require unprecedented cooperation between defense and intelligence agencies.
“We are in a full way of planning,” the official of the national security of the Ronald Reagan Institute said on the database of innovation of national security. “We owe the answer back to the White House by the end of the month about what our thoughts are.”
The golden dome should protect now from a series of threats – including hypersonic rockets, ballistic rockets, advanced cruising rockets. Early detection would be relied on to space sensors that would start intercepting the rackets for quick response.
“It will be a difficult lifting of all the organizations that will participate. And what we really have to push are organizational boundaries and cultures that will try to slow us down or prevent us from working together,” Guetlein said.
The US Rocket Defense Agency “is really good in protecting their homeland from ICBM”, according to Guetlein, but they need a space force for the construction of space abilities, and air forces and army to manage the drone systems.
The National Scouting Office, which manages US spy satellites, also has space opportunities needed to protect the homeland.
Guetlein said the nation would have to “break the barriers” between the titles of 10 and the titles of the 50th United States, federal laws that manage national defense and secret operations.

“No doubt, our biggest challenge will be organizational behavior and culture to combine all pieces,” Guetlein said.
The golden dome would be a big step from the current ground defense system, which relies on rocket intercepts stationed in Alaska and California intended to protect the homeland from a small number of ballistic rockets that could be release from North Korea.
Guetlein said Iran provided a “real life example” in Middle Eastwhere US forces helped to execute a series of missiles aimed at Israel last year.

Trump said during his Obligation to a common session of Congress On Tuesday, he would ask the legislators to match the funds for the project.
“My focus is on the construction of the most powerful army of the future,” Trump said. “As a first step, I ask Congress to finance a top-notch rocket defense shield, a” Golden Dome “to protect our homeland-all-made in the US.”

The president claimed that Ronald Reagan wanted to build such a system, but that was not possible considering that time.
“Israel has it, other places have it, and the United States should have it,” he said. “This is a very dangerous world. We should have it. We want to be protected. And we will protect our citizens as never before.”
