The Golden Dome office just opened a site so industry can cut the red tape.
Summary
- The Golden Dome office launched a website for industry input, the Washington Examiner reports.
- The project is the US push for a layered homeland missile shield.
- The site is meant to take vendor ideas without a six-month RFI funeral.
- Missile defense only works if sensors, interceptors, and software actually talk.
- China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea are the reason the office exists.
Commentary
A website is not a dome. It is a door. Use it to buy hardware, not to host another listening session.
Allies under Chinese and North Korean missiles already understand urgency. The US should too.
Cut the red tape, field the interceptors, and stop treating homeland defense as a branding exercise.
Discussion
Is a Golden Dome website a real step or just a portal?

If a vendor can submit a sensor without a 400-page RFP, that is a step.

I want interceptors on the pad, not a CMS theme.

Missile shields are fantasy and a contractor feast.

Iron Dome was called a fantasy too. Then it started catching rockets.

Japan already buys the stack. A US dome that works is an alliance asset.

Spend it on diplomacy instead.

Diplomacy did not retire the ICBM. Radar does.

Airspace is a border. Defend it.

Examiner said the point is cutting red tape. Hold them to the buy orders.

Portal this quarter. Contract next quarter. Or it was just a site.
