IEDD

IEDD is effectively the detection, identification, field evaluation, rendering safe, recovery, and final disposal of IEDs.  Kratos Enterprises staff are exclusively trained and qualified at their respective NATO IED military centres of excellence and all have a minimum of ten years
operational experience in both low and high-threat IED environments including Iraq, Afghanistan, Colombia and Northern Ireland. 

Our comprehensive training programmes cover all aspects of an IED incident from pre-incident planning, through threat analysis and incident management to render-safe procedures and post incident procedures.   Crucially, our courses are designed to train personnel in both permissive and non-permissive environments covering the full spectrum of IEDD operations.

Assault IEDD

In addition to low and high threat IEDD techniques in permissive environments, Kratos Enterprises Ltd offers specialist assault IEDD training to experienced operators involved in aviation, land-based and maritime interdiction operations in non-permissive (hostage rescue type) situations.

In the case of maritime targets, for example, insertion will often be by helicopter or underway vessels - usually rapid assault craft.

Assault IEDD’ differs from generic IEDD in that the overriding aim of the IEDD operator is to maintain the momentum of the assault in a hostile (non-permissive) environment by facilitating the assaulters reaching their objective safely, rapidly and with minimum risk of compromise.
The IEDD techniques taught include threat assessment, IED avoidance, breaching and rapid neutralisation techniques as well as stealthy render-safe techniques used during covert approaches.

CBRN

Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Device Disposal

CBRN device disposal is a highly complex operation which incorporates the detection, identification, field evaluation, rendering safe, recovery and final disposal of any munition with a chemical, biological or radiological payload.  Kratos Enterprises Ltd is able to provide highly trained EOD operators skilled in decontamination and specialist render safe techniques to assist and train emergency services, local government and other agencies in dealing with CBRN incidents.
