Iron Dome Pacific: Denial and Missile Defense Doctrine

Iron Dome Pacific is a strategic doctrine that argues deterrence in the Western Pacific will depend on denial, specifically, the ability to absorb and defeat large-scale missile salvos while sustaining operations over time. The paper proposes a scalable missile-defense architecture centered on magazine depth, distributed emplacement, resilient command-and-control, and industrial production capacity. Its core premise is simple: defensive endurance is the prerequisite for all other operations, and industrial throughput is a strategic weapon in its own right.
