However, critics argue that the technology for such a comprehensive defense system against ICBMs and hypersonic missiles is far from feasible. Gabe Murphy, a policy analyst at Taxpayers for Common Sense, said “The Golden Dome is basically a fantasy. Physicists say that this technology to defend against ICBMs and hypersonic missiles doesn’t exist. Funneling tens, perhaps hundreds, of billions of dollars into technology with only a faint hope of success is extremely wasteful.”
