1. An IED (Improvised Explosive Device) defense system for forcing premature detonation of IEDs triggered by chemical substances, the IED defense system comprising:
- one or more chemical platforms adapted for releasing chemical substances within a predefined defense zone defining an IED detonation zone; and
one or more controllers for activating the platforms to release said chemical substances within the IED detonation zone, thereby forcing premature detonation of IEDs triggered by chemical substances within the IED detonation zone.

Abstract
An Improvised Explosive Device (IED) defense system is described that forces premature detonation of IEDs by releasing chemical substances from a stationary or mobile platform within a stationary or mobile “IED detonation zone.” IEDs within the IED detonation zone that are triggered by chemical substances will receive the released chemical substances, thereby forcing premature detonation of IEDs in the detonation zone.
