When will that be used?
First the Russian army, now the U.S army. I tell you these generals have buckled in to the pressure of the fashion community

The current camouflage pattern the U.S. Army has right now is complete shit. You don't blend in from a at all; the colors on the uniform blend together and you end up looking like a gray blotch from a distance. This comes from an enlisted serviceman.

[QUOTE=MrJazzy;26735753]When will that be used?[/QUOTE] USED??? It looks good, that all that counts
I don't care what it is, as long as it's not fucking ACU. Being in JROTC and on the Raider team, I wear them frequently. It looks retarded and blends in with nothing. We always whip out a new uniform for the area we'll fight in next. BDUs looked great and was supposed to blend in with western and eastern Europe to fight the soviets. Just have the camo pattern consist have dark green and black. Black everything :D
They need to finally get rid of ACU, seriously whoever thought that was a good form of camouflage needs to get a new set of eyes.

I prefer MARPAT, even though I was in the Army.

Can somebody post pictures and name the type of camouflage for the people who don't know the specifics please.

[QUOTE=Fofilolipop;26736188]To be honest, that looks fucking disgusting.[/QUOTE] Vaginas always do.
So there gonna stop using MultiCam and ACU? They get the job done pretty well to be honest.

[QUOTE=tier56;26739024]So there gonna stop using MultiCam and ACU? They get the job done pretty well to be honest.[/QUOTE] They are definitely moving away from the Universal Digital Camouflage also known as ACU. Looks like they want a variety to choose from depending on the terrain. They want a Woodland, Desert, and Transitional. MultiCam very well may turn out being that transitional option if it beats whatever is served up by different companies during the competition. In the meantime MultiCam is being used in Afghanistan only as they phase out ACU and ACU is being used everywhere else till they come up with an alternative.
MultiCam is rather nice and effective.

Yeah, it works in rocky areas but it doesn't work well at all in forested areas. Multicam isn't much better either IMO.

Finally, ACU is garbage. Why do they need someone to design a new camoflage pattern, just adopt flecktarn or something and recolor it you imbeciles.
MARPAT is where it's at. I just wish I had more than woodland and desert to work with
I have to agree, I like MARPAT, but again, why not just recolor it for different environments?
[QUOTE=yuki;26739751]I have to agree, I like MARPAT, but again, why not just recolor it for different environments?[/QUOTE] Because issuing new color schemes costs money, not only to the government but the service men as well. The uniform isn't free, I get to pay $120 a set.
