Lockheed Martin has announced the launch of a prototyping center, where possible control and surveillance solutions are being developed that will become a key part of the architecture of the Golden Dome missile defense system. This center will allow virtual testing and rapid prototyping of technologies to improve the detection and interception of missile threats as part of a large-scale project funded by the US Department of Defense.
The Golden Dome is a multi-level missile defense system that combines tracking satellites, kinetic interceptors in space and on Earth positions, powerful lasers and artificial intelligence for rapid reaction to missile launches. Lockheed Martin, as the lead contractor, is actively cooperating with other companies and partners to create effective control and surveillance modules that allow the system to detect and neutralize threats in a timely manner.
The launch of the prototyping center is an important step towards creating a full—fledged system, which, according to plans, should be tested by 2028. At the same time, the project is still under development, and the companies face the task of integrating many technologies and developments, including space interceptors that can shoot down missiles in the early stages of flight.
