Better late than never. The Dutch are also developing a new camo, even though our main contribution in A'stan ended over 2 years ago, and the camo, if the project won't be cancelled, won't be delivered from 2014 onwards. It's good that the Norwegians are also updating their camo, I never found their desert cammies effective compared to others, although their woodland version seems to work fine in Norway.[R-COM]H.sta wrote:the thing here is that the norwegian desert camo was never actually tested, they first used the US tri-color, but then made a version with the norwegian pattern, and the tri-color colors. never actually tested before put in use, but why they choose to look at a new desert camo now that they are backing out of Afghanistan I don't get.
ofcourse it looks like the russian and the marpat, they are all digital desert camos with similar intended use and therefore colors.
