A new defense initiative aimed at intercepting missiles before they can hit the U.S. has been announced, but how will this Golden Dome work?

Donald Trump announced the initial plans for hisd "Golden Dome" missile defense plan at the White House Tuesday afternoon.

"It's a generational investment in the security of America and Americans," Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said.

President Trump's missile defense project, called the "Golden Dome for America," could cost hundreds of billions of dollars.

President Donald Trump has announced the concept he wants for his future Golden Dome missile defense program — a multilayered system that for the first time will put U.S. weapons in space.

Wellington Koo says the Trump administration has a shared interest in security in the region, but Taiwan must also ready its own forces for asymmetric warfare.

Trump's plans to build a "Golden Dome" U.S. missile defense system undermine "global strategic balance and stability," and should be abandoned, China says.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has accepted a luxury Boeing 747 jet from Qatar for President Donald Trump to use as Air Force One, the Pentagon said Wednesday, despite ongoing questions about the ethics and legality of taking the expensive gift from a foreign nation.

President Donald Trump said on Tuesday he had selected a design for the $175-billion Golden Dome missile defense shield and named a Space Force general to head the ambitious program aimed at blocking threats from China and Russia.
