Lockheed Martin has developed a command and control (C2) prototyping solution to accelerate the maturation of the Trump administration’s planned Golden Dome capability, Washington’s version of Israel’s Iron Dome air and missile defense system.
Under the project, the company used its Center for Innovation in Suffolk, Virginia, to establish a secure prototyping and experimentation facility known as “The Lighthouse,” enabling collaboration across government, military, and industry.
The hub supports live, virtual, and simulated testing, classified exercises, modeling, wargaming, and mission-focused demonstrations.
It is now online to evaluate future Golden Dome C2 systems using existing, combat-proven technologies built for operations across all domains, from seabed to space, according to the company.
Tools that are being tested include battle management systems, sensor tasking, mission planning software, threat evaluation, and AI-enabled decision support capabilities for current and emerging threats.

The Pentagon aims to deploy initial Golden Dome capabilities within three years.
