Military officials told FoxNews.com it is unlikely extremists in Afghanistan use these products for IEDs.
“Our Technical Support Center has found no reports of IEDs specifically identifying "Tannerite" in Iraq or Afghanistan,” according to Gideon Rogers, spokesman for the Naval Surface Warfare Center.
However, a civilian police bomb technician contractor who was responsible for evaluating and reassembling IEDs from Afghanistan in 2007 tells FoxNews.com he came across a bottle of Tannerite in a box of IED components from the war zone.
"I was confused as to why it was in a box with IED components and how people got hold of it to use against our troops," said the contractor, who declined to be identified because of the classified nature of the project he was involved in. "I know what I saw because I took the Tannerite out of the box myself."
