SpaceX is playing a central infrastructure and technology role in the U.S. government’s Golden Dome program — America’s next-generation, space-based missile defense system.
Core involvement
Software development: In April 2026, SpaceX joined a nine-company consortium tasked with building the core operating software for Golden Dome. This “glue layer” software is designed to integrate and control radars, sensors, and missile batteries across the U.S. military services, enabling AI-enabled command and control from space TESLARATI.
Satellite communications: SpaceX is focused on integrating satellite communications for military operations into the Golden Dome network, ensuring secure, real-time data flow between space assets and ground systems TESLARATI.
Missile-tracking satellites: In June 2026, the Pentagon awarded SpaceX a
$4.16 billion contract to build a constellation of missile-tracking satellites for Golden Dome.
