The usage of camouflage in modern army combat uniforms dates back to the 19th century with the appearance of a palette of basic colors such as military green, brown, and khaki. The objective has always been to protect the soldier by mimicking the environment in which he finds himself. It has always been sought to confuse the soldier with the ground in which he finds himself to prevent it from being seen by the adversary and make it difficult for it to be accurately targeted by an enemy weapon.
However, the camouflage pattern is only one of the elements that manage to protect the soldier, in addition to the military camouflage uniforms patterns, the fabrics used in the military camouflage uniform tend to have ultraviolet treatments to limit the reflection of light to protect the soldier from guns with night vision, infrared, among others.
Types of military camouflage uniform patterns
Below we will mention some of the camouflage patterns that military forces around the world have used or are still using. One of these patterns can be the perfect option for you.
Duck hunter / Frog skin
Finds its origin in the military forces of the United States. Upon entering the Second World War, they realized that the army did not have a camouflage system developed for combat uniforms, as they had traditionally worn military green uniforms of Olive Drab or Olive-green color. This camouflage used reversible fabrics since the darker side was used for vegetation or jungle places and the lightest side for landings on the beach. The Duck hunter camouflage wore a mottled of five green colors while the Duck Skin used a mottled of two colors on a khaki base. At present, the Australian Army continues to use a version of this camouflage pattern called Auscam or Australian Defence Force Disruptive Pattern Military Camouflage Uniform.
Flecktarn
This camouflage pattern currently used for some armies around the world survives from the period of the Second World War. This camouflage pattern has a desert version called Tropentarn in which a two-color mottled is used on a khaki base. This camouflage uses painted mottled of between 3 and 6 colors. This camouflage is appropriate for forested areas in central Europe, but other armies, such as Japan’s Army, use the Type II variation in which green colors predominate and are better adapted to the conditions of the country. Russia also has its version called Flectar D or Server.
LizardTap 47
It was a camouflage used by French troops during various conflicts such as the Indochina War, the Algerian war, and during the Suez Canal crisis. This camouflage pattern was replaced in 1991 by a camouflage pattern called Camouflage Center Europa CCE which is a variation of the Woodland M81 camouflage pattern of the United States. Currently, some armed forces around the world continue to use this camouflage pattern as the basis for the uniforms of some special forces. Greece stands out with its armed forces and Greek Lizards and Russia with its Spetsnaz special forces.
Chocolate Chip
Historically singled color uniforms were used in desert areas, often khaki color because it resembled the color of the sand. However, this type of camouflage has not guaranteed the complete protection of the soldier. In 1962 the US Army developed a pattern for desert. This desert camouflage uses 6-color speckles and was first used in 1979 when the US administration approved the creation of a rapid intervention force to deploy in the Middle East in the Eagle Claw operation. Again, this pattern of camouflage was reused during the First Gulf War. At present, this pattern of camouflage has been used by more than 60 countries that develop operations in desert or arid areas that have rocks or mountains. However, the pattern does not offer protection in the open desert.
Stripes
This pattern of camouflage is considered to be an evolution of Lizard TAP 47. With the first Indochina war and the subsequent division of Vietnam into two countries: North Vietnam and South Vietnam, evidence has been found of the use of the camouflage pattern Lizard TAP 47 in South Vietnam until before 1958, the approximate date in which it armed forces begin to use a variation called Tiger Stripes. This pattern turned out to be very effective for operations in areas of dense vegetation such as the jungles of Vietnam. At present, South American countries such as Ecuador or French Guiana continue to use this pattern of camouflage.
In Thailand, the Tiger Strips continue to be used by the Naresuan 261 antiterrorism unit. It is also used in the Philippines. And the US Air Force uses a digital version of the pattern since 2011. Similarly, the British special forces have used the pattern in a very effective desert version for places with grass or yellowish vegetation and light-colored floors.
Desert camouflage in three colors
In 1992 the 3-color desert camouflage pattern replaced the Chocolate Chip camouflage pattern as it proved more effective in open deserts and sandy areas. As of that year, other countries continued to adopt this pattern, however, it continues without being widely disseminated.
Woodland M81
It is one of the best-known and used camouflage patterns thanks to its effectiveness. Its origin dates back to the camouflage ERDL M1948. This pattern began to be used towards the middle of the Vietnam War. The camouflage pattern that gave rise to the Woodland M81 had smaller drawings making it ideal for close combat while the Woodland M81 has larger drawings for far-distance combat. This pattern has been adopted by many countries over the years. It continues to be used by East, South American, Middle East, and Asian countries. This type of camouflage was manufactured without ultraviolet treatment, allowing that daily wear infringed natural ultraviolet, which resulted in a lower light reflection as the military uniform was worn by the soldier.
Marpat
This type of digital camouflage is made up of small squares that resemble the pixels of a screen. At present, this camouflage is used by forces such as the US Marine Corps which has versions for desert, snow, and wooded areas. Multicam It appeared in 2002 but it was not until 2009 when it began to be used when the US Army sent it to the different open fronts. This type of camouflage is used for different areas with high or medium efficiency in different environments from areas with little vegetation to areas with a considerable plant density.
This camouflage pattern uses different shades of green, brown, and khaki gradients which makes it a camouflage pattern that adapts to different environments allowing the user to melt with the surroundings thanks to a combination of colors that favors the camouflage of the favorable colors and a minor detachment of colors less favorable to the environment in which the soldier is. Currently, this pattern is used by more than 40 countries that have adopted their versions. That’s why, if you have a pattern you like, we can make it.
