Anduril Announces Team for Its Golden Dome Space-Based Missile ...

Anduril is one of 12 companies selected to help build orbiting interceptors aimed at stopping missiles in the boost phase.

  • On Tuesday, Anduril Industries announced a consortium to develop space-based interceptors for the U.S. Space Force, advancing the $185 billion Golden Dome missile defense initiative.
  • The Space Force previously awarded contracts worth $3.2 billion to 12 companies, including Anduril, to create an orbital layer capable of destroying missiles during their boost phase.
  • Anduril's consortium integrates technologies from Impulse Space, Inversion Space, K2 Space, Sandia National Laboratories, and Voyager Technologies, aiming to deliver "affordable, scalable" solutions.
  • Gokul Subramanian, Anduril's senior vice president of engineering, said "near-peer adversaries have invested in exotic, highly manoeuvrable vehicles," introducing challenges for homeland defense.
  • Space Force General Michael Guetlein aims to demonstrate an initial layered defense capability by summer 2028, though independent projections suggest total program costs could exceed $500 billion.
