3 ENDORSEMENT During the June 2014 MIC Principals meeting and its post-meeting actions, the MIC Steering Group (SG) representatives approved and endorsed this document as contributing to the development of operational practices that enable more effective coalition operations across the contemporary operating environment. The MIC SG representatives are the senior or lead O-6/NATO OF-5 from each MIC member nation s national defense headquarters/staff operations branch, representing their respective MIC Principal and nation. The SG is responsible for assessing and managing the MIC s work and recommending MIC strategy and guidance to the MIC Principals to facilitate improved interoperability for enhanced coalition operations. The MIC member nations include: Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The MIC provides a joint, multinational forum for identifying and addressing multinational and or coalition interoperability issues across the contemporary operating environment and articulating actions at the strategic and high operational level that, if nationally implemented by MIC member nations, will contribute to more effective coalition operations. i P age January 2015

9 CONSIDERATIONS The evolution of threats in the contemporary operating environment has resulted in considerable change to the conduct of operations by coalition forces. In recent years, Improvised Explosive Devices (IED) in their various forms has become one of the weapons of choice for insurgencies in operational theatres, as well as representing a global threat. The IED has become a feature of the modern battlefield and is likely to remain a serious challenge in the future. In responding to this challenge, coalitions must remain adaptable and flexible while developing robust and effective Counter-IED (C-IED) policies and procedures. As a result, C-IED activities must be widely understood and integrated within the whole of government / comprehensive approach (CA) and across all levels of command. The combined joint environment within which C-IED is conducted forms part of the coalition s CA. The IED threat permeates all aspects of the CA, affecting the cohesion of the coalition and the willingness of civil actors including host nation, International Organisations (IO), Non-Governmental Organisations (NGO) and many others supporting the coalition s CA to remain in theatre. At the strategic level it is likely that early withdrawal of such agencies would undermine the CA and necessitate the provision from other sources of the humanitarian and reconstruction support that they provide. When combined with influence activities, IEDs can also have a disproportionate effect on the opinions of locals and amplify the strategic level issues. Therefore, the creation of a secure environment and the provision of education and training are key considerations. The adaptive IED challenge will remain a threat across the full range of coalition operations. Consequently, integrating C-IED activities and enablers (people and equipment) for defensive (Defeat the Device) and offensive (Attack the Networks) operations require clearly documented and practised staff processes. Stove-piped C-IED expertise and operations have proven unreliable in supporting overall operational objectives and theatre campaign plans working together. Therefore, C-IED operations should and must be fully integrated into the national and coalition force strategic objectives. Designing an operation to defeat the IED threat requires a comprehensive strategy that integrates and synchronizes series of actions and tasks from the tactical to the strategic levels of command and requires interaction with non-military organizations and the populace. The proliferation of IED use has resulted in a wide range of national, multinational, and coalition activities intended to find ways of addressing the threat. While often effective in developing approaches to deal with the IED threat in its current form, these activities risk duplication of effort and limited visibility between different programmes and projects. Consequently, the need to establish shared awareness of C-IED efforts through better coordination, ideally at the same time avoiding the creation of more network nodes, has been recognised at national and multinational levels. In an attempt 1 P age January 2015

10 to bring transparency to this issue, each MIC nation identified their engagement to C- IED Initiatives and their respective C-IED Governance Structure and Lead Point of Contact. The following is a list of ongoing C-IED programmes / initiatives: a. NATO Communications and Information Agency (NCIA). Provides overall oversight of C-IED progress and acts as the overall integrator in the provision of NATO military capability acting as the coordinating body for driving forward C-IED packages. Also arranges regular workshops to bring together NATO representatives to take forward C-IED capability. b. NATO Conference of National Armaments Directors (CNAD). NATO clearing house for C-IED material and equipment, producing a Material Roadmap to integrate individual member states initiatives into a clear and coherent programme, delivering interoperability and sharing best practice. c. NATO C-IED Task Force. Established by the recognition for the need of a cohesive and coordinated effort throughout NATO organisations, structures, components, and nations. In implementing an agreed C-IED Action Plan, the Task Force (TF) coordinates efforts to validate strategic, operational and tactical requirements and works towards ensuring that the management of technological developments and industrial solutions is conducted through appropriate NATO bodies. It also addresses coherent, mutually reinforcing capability requirements with the European Union (EU). d. NATO C-IED Action Plan Revision 1. Agreed on 24 October NATO C- IED Action Plan Revision 1 envisages an End State in which NATO has a full understanding of the IED threat, and is properly prepared to conduct activities to minimize the impact of the IED and the networks which employ them. To achieve this it puts in place the process to define, review and update the Alliance's C-IED capability, to institutionalize C-IED in the NATO Command and Force structures and to support nations efforts to institutionalize C-IED. It does this by examining eight lines of effort: Defence Planning; Concept Development and Standardization; Knowledge Development; Education and Training; Organization; Material and Resources; Co-operation; and Policy. The Annex to the Action Plan provides the detailed tasks required against each of the eight lines of effort to define, develop, and institutionalize C-IED within NATO across the three pillars of Attack the Networks, Defeat the Device and Prepare the Force. Implementation of the revised Action Plan is managed by the C-IED Task Force led by ACT's C-IED IPT. e. NATO C-IED Procurements Initiative. In support of NATO s C-IED Action Plan this initiative will engage Allies and Partners in a substantive debate to 2 P age January 2015

11 identify projects that can deliver operational benefits and economies of scale. f. NATO C-IED Centre of Excellence (CoE). A further focusing of C-IED effort across the Alliance is provided by the NATO-accredited C-IED CoE. One of a number of independent, NATO-accredited CoEs (including the Joint Air Power Competence Centre) whose activities are coordinated by the Transformational Network Branch of Allied Command Transformation, the C- IED CoE offers independent expertise and capacity, complementing and supporting the NATO C-IED TF, Alliance members and partner nations. g. European Defence Agency (EDA) C-IED Project Team. Established to support its Member States and the Council in their effort to improve European defence capabilities. C-IED is one of the top priorities of the Agency. The agency has established a C-IED Project Team that is taking a holistic approach to all aspects of C-IED in an effort to achieve a systematic and harmonised EU approach to the topic. h. US Joint IED Defeat Organization (JIEDDO). The Joint IED Defeat Organization (JIEDDO) was established in 2006 by the U.S. Deputy Secretary of Defense to rapidly respond to the IED threat to U.S. forces along three lines of operation: Defeat IED Devices; Attack the Networks that facilitate or employ IEDs, and Train the Force to counter IEDs and attack threat networks. In 2013, the U.S. Deputy Secretary of Defense directed that JIEDDO leverage its capabilities to contribute to the Department of Defense efforts against counter-terrorism, counter-transnational organized crime, counter-weapons of mass destruction and other specified mission areas as well as counter-ied. 3 P age January 2015

The FRCC is defined as the capability elements (Personnel, Procedures, Doctrine and Equipment) required to allow the Manoeuvre Commander to enhance freedom of movement (FoM) with regard to IEDs / Mines or Unexploded Ordnances (UXOs), in spite of the adversary s action. The aim of the Future Route Clearance Capability is to establish that a route is free from explosive hazards (IEDs, UXOs or mines), by detecting the presence of such devices, removing the threat, remediating the route to allow continued FoM. A Route Clearance Capability supports the overall C-IED effort by defeating the device. MS. Military Search provides the expert advice and co-ordination required for systematic and flexible assurance to determine an absence of devices, or to indicate the location of suspect devices. Military working dogs and other C-IED enablers are often integral to search activities. The techniques of military search can be applied to all manner of search tasks to include combinations of personnel, buildings, venues, areas, routes, vehicles, vessels and aircrafts. 12 P age January 2015
