Golden Dome replaces Iron Dome: Pentagon renames missile defense initiative – SpaceNews
By: Sandra Erwin for Space News
WASHINGTON — The Pentagon has quietly renamed the Trump administration’s ambitious national missile defense initiative from “Iron Dome for America” to “Golden Dome for America,” according to a recent advisory to defense contractors.
The name change came to light when Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, while discussing programs protected from potential budget cuts, referred to the system as “Golden Dome, or Iron Dome” in a recent video addressing the Pentagon’s efforts to identify $50 billion in cost savings in the 2026 budget. What initially appeared to be a verbal slip has now been confirmed as an official program name change.
