Counter Improvised Explosive Device Task Force (CIED TF) In February 2006 the Chief of Defence Force directed the establishment of a dedicated Task Force to coordinate and monitor the Australian Defence Force’s response to the IED threat – the ADF Counter Improvised Explosive Device Task Force (CIED TF). The Australian Defence Force’s approach to combating the IED threat is heavily reliant on robust and adaptable tactics, techniques and procedures (TPPs). Defence, in parallel with its ISAF partners, is constantly exploring technology–based opportunities to strengthen its counter IED capabilities. The Defence Science and Technology Organisation (DSTO) performs a critical role in this area. The CIED TF has strong links to our ISAF partners and has personnel deployed to support operations in Afghanistan as well as the United States at the Joint IED Defeat Organisation.
