President Trump is rapidly expanding America's nuclear and missile defense arsenal. Days after announcing the $175 billion “Golden Dome” defense system, the U.S. test-launched the Minuteman III ICBM and revealed the early completion of the powerful B61-13 nuclear bomb. With strategic upgrades underway and warhead modernization accelerating, the U.S. is signaling military readiness on an unprecedented scale.
