Expert Analysis Reveals Technical And Cost Concerns
A national missile shield, as proposed in the Golden Dome initiative, faces significant challenges due to the laws of physics and cost concerns, according to Michael O’Hanlon, Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution. While some technologies show promise, space-based interceptors are considered questionable due to their high cost and technical difficulties. The US has made progress in developing ground-based systems against ballistic missiles, but longer range intercept capabilities are still in development. As reported by Federal News Network.
