Joint Improved Explosive Device Defeat Organization. Annual Report FY 2009

Abstract

The Department of Defense (DoD) established the Joint IED Defeat Organization (JIEDDO) in February 2006 to meet an urgent and compelling need to counter improvised explosive devices (IEDs) in Iraq and Afghanistan. Since then, JIEDDO has provided significant capabilities to warfighters - enabling IED network attack, enabling IED detection and defeat, and providing leading-edge counter-IED training to our men and women in uniform. This Annual Report provides an accounting of JIEDDO's significant efforts in Fiscal Year 2009. Highlights include: * Orchestrating a $3.1 billion effort to develop and deliver counter-IED capabilities on abbreviated timelines. * Improving effectiveness in developing and fusing information to understand and enable attacks against IED networks - and pushing that information forward to troops in theater. * Posturing JIEDDO to meet long-term DoD needs to counter IEDs as weapons of strategic influence.
