The U.S. Space Force has quietly issued a series of small Golden Dome contracts, each under $9 million, to major defense giants and emerging startups. Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin, True Anomaly, and Anduril are among the firms selected to develop rival missile-defense prototypes. These early awards kick off a competition that could eventually yield tens of billions of dollars in production deals. The program backs space-based interceptors and fire-control systems designed to track and destroy enemy missiles from orbit. At a recent presser, Trump and Hegseth outlined their vision for Golden Dome as a cornerstone of America’s next-gen missile defense.
