President Donald Trump unveiled plans for his “Golden Dome” missile defense shield on Tuesday, predicting that the ambitious plan to expand the country’s air defense system would be completed by the end of his term.
U.S. officials have said the Golden Dome is necessary to protect against “catastrophic attacks,” but experts say it faces logistical and financial hurdles.
The project has been a priority for Mr. Trump since he took office. He promised during the campaign to build a defense system against foreign attacks similar to Israel’s Iron Dome, with air defense capabilities that intercept rockets and missiles.
The United States is more than 400 times larger than Israel.
Mr. Trump has said the project will cost $175 billion, although the Congressional Budget Office said it would likely cost far more, as much as $542 billion. The president said on Tuesday that the Golden Dome would get $25 billion in funding from his tax cut and spending bill, which has yet to pass Congress, and that Canada had expressed interest in taking part in the program, and could share in some of its cost.

周二，唐纳德・特朗普总统公布了其 “金穹顶” 导弹防御系统计划，并预测这项扩大美国防空系统的雄心勃勃的计划将在其任期结束前完成。
美国官员称，“金穹顶” 对于防范 “灾难性袭击” 必不可少，但专家表示该计划面临后勤和资金方面的障碍。
自特朗普上任以来，该项目一直是他的优先事项。他在竞选期间承诺打造一套类似以色列 “铁穹” 的防御系统，以抵御外国袭击，并具备拦截火箭和导弹的防空能力。
美国的面积比以色列大 400 多倍。
特朗普称该项目将耗资 1750 亿美元，尽管美国国会预算办公室表示其成本可能远高于此，高达 5420 亿美元。总统周二表示，“金穹顶” 将从他的减税和支出法案中获得 250 亿美元资金（该法案尚未通过国会审议），此外加拿大已表示有兴趣参与该计划，并可能分担部分成本。

Mr. Trump said he was confident that the United States could complete the project in about three years and be “fully operational before the end of my term.” He called it “as close to perfect as you can have, in terms of real production.”
“Once fully constructed, the Golden Dome will be capable of intercepting missiles even if they are launched from other sides of the world, and even if they are launched from space, and we will have the best system ever built,” Mr. Trump said.
In a January executive order titled “Iron Dome of America,” Mr. Trump gave the Pentagon 60 days to submit details for the plan, which included accelerating development of U.S. hypersonic missiles and “space-based interceptors.”
Administration officials said that Mr. Trump’s project, which the Pentagon named the Golden Dome in a nod to Mr. Trump’s favorite color and metal, would be a next-generation military system designed to guard against a variety of ballistic, hypersonic and cruise missiles, which have been successfully deployed by adversaries such as Russia.

特朗普表示，他相信美国能够在大约三年内完成该项目，并 “在我的任期结束前全面投入使用”。他称其 “在实际生产方面近乎完美”。
“一旦全面建成，‘金穹顶’将能够拦截导弹，即使它们从世界另一端发射，甚至从太空发射，我们将拥有有史以来最好的系统，” 特朗普说。
在 1 月一份名为《美国铁穹》的行政命令中，特朗普要求五角大楼在 60 天内提交该计划的细节，包括加速开发美国高超音速导弹和 “天基拦截器”。
政府官员表示，特朗普的项目 —— 五角大楼以 “金穹顶” 命名，以向特朗普最喜欢的颜色和金属致敬 —— 将是一个下一代军事系统，旨在防范各种弹道导弹、高超音速导弹和巡航导弹，这些导弹已被俄罗斯等对手成功部署。

Mr. Trump also announced that Gen. Michael Guetlein, the vice chief of space operations at the Space Force, would be overseeing the project.
Mr. Guetlein said during the Oval Office announcement that while the United States has been focusing on peace overseas, adversaries had been modernizing their nuclear forces, and building their ballistic capabilities — including hypersonic missiles capable of attacking the United States within an hour and traveling at 6,000 miles an hour.
“It is time that we change that equation and start doubling down on the protection of the homeland,” Mr. Guetlein said.

But shielding the United States from such attacks presents technical challenges. The physics of defending America’s vast territory against an incoming intercontinental missile is wildly more complicated than protecting Israel against the smaller rocket attacks it faces.
Experts also said that the cost of building one for the United States could prove a heavy financial burden. While Mr. Trump stands a chance at getting the $25 billion in the spending bill under consideration in Congress, estimates from the Congressional Budget Office found that it could cost $161 billion to $542 billion to build the system.
The project gives Mr. Trump a chance to realize a vision of former President Ronald Reagan’s. In the 1980s, Reagan spent billions to build a defense system, known as “Star Wars,” against potential nuclear attack. The initiative ultimately failed because of technological and budget challenges.
Mr. Trump said that he didn’t think his Golden Dome would suffer the same fate.
“Ronald Reagan wanted it many years ago, but they didn’t have the technology,” he said. “But it’s something we’re going to have. We’re going to have it at the highest level.”

但要保护美国免受此类袭击存在技术挑战。保卫美国广袤领土免受洲际导弹袭击的物理原理，远比保护以色列免受其面临的小型火箭弹袭击复杂得多。
专家还表示，为美国建造这样一个系统的成本可能成为沉重的财政负担。尽管特朗普有望从国会正在审议的支出法案中获得 250 亿美元，但美国国会预算办公室的估算显示，建造该系统可能耗资 1610 亿至 5420 亿美元。
该项目让特朗普有机会实现前总统罗纳德・里根的愿景。20 世纪 80 年代，里根斥资数十亿美元打造了名为 “星球大战” 的防御系统，以抵御潜在的核攻击。但由于技术和预算挑战，该计划最终失败。
特朗普表示，他认为自己的 “金穹顶” 不会重蹈覆辙。
“罗纳德・里根多年前就想要这个系统，但当时他们没有相应的技术，” 他说，“但我们将会拥有它，而且会是最高水平的。”
