The main component of an improvised explosive device (IED) is typically an explosive charge, which can be made from various materials such as military-grade explosives, homemade explosives, or commercially available substances. Additionally, IEDs often include a triggering mechanism, which can be activated remotely, by a timer, or by a victim. Other components may include shrapnel, power sources, and casing to enhance the device's lethality and effectiveness.
