Furientis
United States · Defense tech
Furientis develops interceptor missiles designed for affordable production at scale.
Product
Defense customers need to replenish interceptors fast enough to respond to sustained aerial threats. Furientis builds its missile designs around manufacturing throughput, integrating the seeker, controls, airframe and rocket motor rather than treating production as a later step.
Its F1.0 tactical interceptor combines a solid rocket motor, structures intended for rapid assembly and canard controls. The company uses commodity components within its precision-guidance system and develops core subsystems in house. Founded by Brody Franzen and Aris Simsarian, Furientis brings aerospace engineering and propulsion experience into its defensive-munitions programme.
