Bill > HR4107

This bill establishes a comprehensive national missile defense strategy called "Golden Dome" to improve the United States' capabilities to detect, track, and intercept potential missile and unmanned system threats from adversaries like China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran. The legislation creates a new Program Manager position with extensive authorities to accelerate the development of advanced missile defense technologies across multiple domains, including space, land, sea, and cyber. Key provisions include rapidly developing space-based sensors and interceptors, modernizing terrestrial radar systems, advancing artificial intelligence and autonomous defense technologies, and expanding interceptor production facilities in Alaska. The bill authorizes $23 billion in funding for fiscal year 2026, with significant allocations for research and development of non-kinetic defense capabilities, space-based sensor networks, and advanced positioning and tracking technologies. The Program Manager will have broad powers to expedite procurement, testing, and deployment of missile defense systems, including the ability to waive certain regulatory requirements and work across federal agencies to ensure rapid implementation of the Golden Dome strategy.
