Ied Devices

Improvised explosive devices (IEDs) are designed to harm others and come in different categories. IEDs consist of a main charge, switch, initiator, and power supply contained in a case or container. They can be time-based, using clocks or timers, or command-initiated through radio controllers. Victim-operated IEDs are triggered when pressure is applied, such as on a pressure plate. Safety precautions should be taken when dealing with IEDs due to their dangerous nature.
