The nuclear-capable Minuteman III missile reached the Ronald Reagan Ballistic Missile Defense Test Site at the Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands, which is part of the US Army Space and Missile Defense Command, after traveling about 4200 miles at a speed of over 15000 miles per hour, reported NDTV.

The Kremlin indicated on Wednesday that President Donald Trump's "Golden Dome" missile shield plans could force the resumption in the foreseeable future of contacts between Moscow and Washington about nuclear arms control.

Trump’s ‘Golden Dome’ proposal could run into many of the same issues Reagan’s ‘Star Wars Program’ did in the 1980s, argue critics.

Russia and China already possess thousands of weapons that could hit the U.S. homeland that the "Golden Dome" will ideally intercept once operational.

The Golden Dome missile defense system proposed by President Donald Trump could cost the United States more than $1.5 trillion, U.S. Space Force Chief of Staff Gen. Bradley Chance Saltzman said during a security conference, Air & Space Forces. Saltzman warned that the current $542 billion budget is not enough to implement the program.
