About Isengard Industries Inc

Isengard Industries is not another drone company. We build sovereign production: the means for allied nations to make precision-strike and counter-drone systems by the thousand, on their own soil, at a fraction of what the primes charge. We call it Weapons of Mass Production. The Arsenal of Democracy, rebuilt for the drone age. More to come, and only where it helps. You know how to reach us.

  • James Tennant

    Founder

    I'm Co-Founder and CIO of Isengard Industries. We build counter-drone interceptors that allies manufacture locally at a fraction of prime cost. Before Isengard I served as an Australian Army Officer, then spent a decade in private equity and private credit. I ran Balmoral, a private credit fund, and have led diligence and structuring on defence-tech deals across Australia, Ukraine and the Gulf. I'm also completing a PhD on economic warfare and hybrid threats.
