President Donald Trump will announce at the White House Tuesday afternoon his initial plans for the “Golden Dome” missile defense system, an effort he says will protect the United States against threats from North Korea and elsewhere, three U.S. officials confirmed.
Trump will be joined by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Gen. Michael Guetlein, the Pentagon’s vice chief of space operations. Guetlein is being asked to lead the project, according to one official.
