Elon Musk’s SpaceX looks set to win a $2 billion contract to develop satellites for use in tracking missiles and aircraft as part of President Donald Trump’s Golden Dome defense project, according to a report.
The planned “air moving target indicator” system in question could ultimately feature as many as 600 satellites once it is fully operational, The Wall Street Journal reports. Musk’s company has also been linked to two more satellite ventures, which are concerned with relaying sensitive communications and tracing vehicles, respectively.
