Israel and Iran resumed firefighting exchanges at the end of last week, and space and defense fans followed fusillades. It was the front and the center Using drones In this new leg of conflict and the health of the missile defense system, the villain iron dome in Israel, where a barrage of drones and missiles fought.

There is an inevitable relationship: The Iron Dome is currently the job in Israel, which US President Donald Trump wants to finish home through a multi-layer, multi-layered missile defense system-a costly concept of $ 175 billion, as lawmakers and analysts often interrogated it. On the one hand, you have a budget office warning The project can cost up to $ 542 billion. On the other hand, space and defense companies are somewhat tending to track Trump’s rapid ambitions from the required vision to the fact that satellite manufacture is made. Before the end of the year 2029 of his term.

“The performance of the multi-level missile defense system for Israel confirms the urgent need to strengthen the American missile defenses.

She added: “American policy makers should see this as an indication of the importance of building inventory before fighting, in the event of a missile attack from Russia or China, we will face more complicated and many sulfos.”

Like Evenio Hollywood, the golden dome of the ashes of the Strategic Defense Initiative of Ronald Reagan – nicknamed “Star Wars” – who died with a long death of a series of arguments about technical obstacles, signs of high -end prices and the possibility of starting the new arms race with the Soviet Union. It is not surprising, that Russia and China were the most prominent foreign critics of the golden dome, which are launched to defend the vast spread of the American homeland of ballistic and innate missiles and cruises via a network of satellites, sensors and intersections. Timing is not perfect – each of the great powers need too much when the main control deal for weapons between Washington and Moscow, the new starting treaty, next year without a back, while the United States was suspended on a similar topic with Beijing in 2024.

Inside the industry, Golden Dome looks like a great bone that is thrown to private space companies facing severe budget discounts in NASA’s main space contractor. Over the past few months, defense and space companies are competing for a segment of the project pie, especially after the recent Elon Musk dispute with Trump’s potential role in the plan. Under the question. Take a look at the Paris Air Show – a sprawling thing that wraps Le Burgit Airport in the northeast of the French capital every two years. About 45 % of this year’s exhibition offers a defense and security stage this year, and Lockheed Martin, Boeing, such as US Defense and Aerospace Platform, used to tension the dome accreditation data.

“It is clear that we have a full number of production lines that will contribute very well, which will fit very well with what is necessary to achieve the task,” said Tim Cahill, President of Lockheed Martin missile and fire control company. According to Reuters.

Golden Dome is offered, but time will determine whether here to stay. On June 10 / Golden dome gathering You will work closely with Senate initiativeTry to support Trump’s plans. At the same time, the Committee for the Credit in the House of Representatives The draft unveiled From the defense spending bill in the financial year 2026, which is characterized by a cold spending line worth 831.5 billion dollars – and the allocation of $ 13 billion to “missile and space defense programs to increase and integrate the effort of the golden dome.” This is $ 8.8 billion and $ 4.1 billion for defense and missile space programs that support the project, in fine printing.

Don’t worry, there is a deal that you must be: Trump reassured Canada, you can skip a newly uploaded fee of $ 71 billion to enjoy the advantages of the golden dome – if it becomes part of the United States.

Better, Washington may end up to a direction across the Atlantic Ocean.

“I don’t know about the golden dome in the United States, etc., but I think we must create a missile defense system … also in the European perspective, and there are initiatives in this direction,” said Michael Johansson, CEO of CNBC’s Charlotte of Paris Air Show. “We must have a European setting on it, and we have this ability with all companies in Europe.”
