Develop a layered homeland missile-defense system

Sullivan supported the FY 2026 defense bill’s inclusion of provisions from his GOLDEN DOME Act, which would develop a modernized, layered system to detect, track, and defeat existing and evolving missile threats. The bill authorizes multi-year purchases of 10 types of missiles, including lower-cost cruise missiles and hypersonic strike systems, and seven-year authorizations for PAC-3, THAAD, and Tomahawk. It also bars caps on testing the system’s kinetic and non-kinetic components and directs the Space Force to identify alternate national launch sites.

Context: The FY 2026 NDAA had passed the Senate and was headed to the President’s desk; the release describes authorizations and directives in the bill, not completed implementation.

In their own words

develop a modernized, layered homeland missile defense system that can counter, detect, track, and defeat existing and evolving threats.
