All Terrain can´t work to me. Making a color that blend in into all enviroments is just impossible. They took the color "black" out of the pattern, because there is no "black" in nature. But there is also no grey nor pink nor... int the nature:

Give them a real desert pattern that blend in into desert area like:

also work at urban, Afghan places

and in European winter (snow free!) terrain

Better than woodland colors :D

The problem with "conventional" patterns is the black. The black is just to black, and differs from the enviroment.
Your eye sees artificial shadow, nightvision sees pitch black dots..

Leaving out the black doesn't work with the human eye.. but the ACU AT was a complete fail in my humble opinion.
CADPAT etc is better, but not suitable all year round in woodland..

The Bundeswehr was experimenting with digital aswell, I stumbled across flecktarn in digital pattern in a military magazine.. :mrgreen:

And there is no such thing as AT pattern: it simply isn't good enough on all terrains..

They should simply make Desert, Woodland, Tropical and Tundra (brownish greenish) patterns.. And make the Woodland and tundra coats/helmcovers inversible to snowcamo.. :mrgreen:
Sure, someone may one day kill me with my own gun.
But they'll have to beat me to death with it because it's empty.

Just to make sure, "ACU" is for Army Combat Uniform.

That pattern is called "AT" for "All Terrain".

It´s not the ACU that is crappy, it´s that "gay", purple AT-color. Since the Army is using it, the don´t need any high visibility vests any more... :twisted:

To me, the AT was designed from some Taliban that made it into the development department... :wink:
you're absolutely right, my dear housil :oops:

at least here is known simply by ACU, ever forget AT (because of all terrain will have nothing?? :mrgreen:

and another thing, I also think the camo for German arid area I think is the best outcome is. and without having to be digital! :mrgreen:

BELOW, we will put those who seem to be (still no official data on their adoption, nor any further information, just these pictures) of the new camouflage patterns will say that the new Spanish army

I personally think that the prize to earn more ugly! :cry:

or which might be the pattern .... :shock:

buffffffffffffffffff ......... :shock: though ... this is what I use on my military service in 1987 (this pattern and become obsolete in that year) fortunately only for exercises in the mountains (although it also included the transfer in open trucks crossing the city :oops: )

I had like in the picture, the colors worn by use, because these uniforms was about 15 years of continuous use (hundreds of washes), but were of a material so thick that they were almost indestructible (I promise that my jacket and pants were left standing alone without any support :mrgreen: )

well, this one is not ugly, it looks a little bit like a German or Swiss Leibermuster pattern.
UT is not ugly either, in my humble opinion it's just not a camouflage but something like the Eastern German rain-drop pattern: Image

Because this thread have over 2 years from the last entry, some time passed and I've read this article:

http://www.arrse.co.uk/content/759-revi ... m-pcs.html

(seems that British soldiers are not entirely happy with their MTP uniforms) I ask our US members about the aivalability of ACU uniforms in Multicam color scheme. Do you saw that type of trousers/pants somewhere near you, in a surplus store?

Also, if somebody cand give some intel, I'd like to have a rigger's belt, to wear daily and use when my climbing harness is not realy required. I found this, but I don't used this type of belt (seems that it's not known in Europe) so I'd like to have an competent advice about them:
