Abstract
Currently, Improvised Explosive Devices (IED) are a weapon that is commonly used by terrorists. There are specialized combat engineering EOD subunits in the Polish Armed Forces intended to counter this threat. Due to their complexity and danger that they pose, the tasks carried out by these subunits can only be assigned to adequately prepared soldiers. On the basis of the literature and his own observations, the author hypothesizes that the above-mentioned subunits’ readiness to carry out their tasks is not adequate. Readiness should be perceived as a collection of factors influencing one another, such as organizational structures, human resources, military equipment, and training. Having analysed each of the factors listed above, the author concludes that due to the everchanging dynamics of the IED environment, it is necessary to continually improve combat engineering subunits’ readiness.
