We just finished deploying a major contract where the military is a primary customer. They still have many machines running IE 11. I used CSS Grid and it's working well. IE 11 supports the initial version of the spec and has the -ms prefixes, but works. There are some things you can't do (like areas), but it largely works with that syntax, if you design with column/row in mind.

See this for details on the IE 10/11 implementation:

Former soldier (national guard) here, and yes, yes they do. You know how aids it is to be a civilian software engineer and have to work with IE11 to complete assignments. The good thing is that 95% of the time I could convince their software to give me a certificate without completing the course on stuff like OPSEC (yes, I am aware I shouldn't share my password with others). Guhhh.

Its a general government thing. The amazing power of contractors to determine what systems their precious software will run on is amazing. I have a Windows Server 2003 machine still on my network because of a grant contractor that hasn't certified anything beyond that.
