	Improvised explosive device - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An improvised explosive device (IED) is the formal name for explosive devices, often used in unconventional warfare or asymmetrical warfare by guerrillas or commando forces in a theater of operations.
		An IED typically consists of an explosive charge (potentially assisted by a "booster" charge), a detonator and an initiation system which is a mechanism that initiates the electrical charge that sets off the device.
		Mostly the IED's used homemade explosives (HME), although the use of Semtex H smuggled in from Libya in the 1980's was also common in smaller devices.

	Improvised Explosive Devices/(IED) Protection from BlastGard International
		Improvised Explosive Device, or IED, is a term referring to any type of device that contains an initiator and either an explosive product or toxic chemicals, biological toxins, or radiological materials, and is used to cause death and destruction to individuals or structures.
		This can prevent the ignition of spilled fuels and other combustible materials that would otherwise occur due to the intense heat release of improvised explosive devices.
		The cooling ability also helps dramatically reduce quasi-static pressure in confined spaces, which is generally the most destructive mechanism in these events.
