MDAA Golden Dome

Making the World a Safer Place

The Missile Defense Advocacy Alliance (MDAA) was founded in 2002 to advocate for the testing, development, and deployment of missile defense systems to defend the United States, our deployed forces, and our allies.

As an advocacy voice for missile defense worldwide, protecting the United States, its armed forces, and allied nations, MDAA has become one of the most effective and relevant advocacy organizations championing global missile defense.
