President Trump's administration has requested Congressional funding for a missile defense initiative labeled the "Golden Dome for America," inspired by Israel's Iron Dome. This proposed system aims to protect the U.S. from missile threats, mirroring the interceptor capabilities seen in Israel. However, experts highlight the significant challenges in creating such a system in a much larger and diverse U.S. environment. Jeffrey Lewis, a missile expert, notes that the differing missile types threatening the U.S. complicate defense strategies, comparing the undertaking to building a battleship rather than a kayak.
Building a "Golden Dome" in the U.S. poses significant challenges due to the vast difference in scale and missile threats compared to Israel's Iron Dome.
Jeffrey Lewis emphasizes the complexity of establishing a missile defense system in the U.S., comparing it to the difference between a kayak and a battleship.
