the first pic is something that always bothers me about our equipment. we don't seem to have made much progress as far as the uniform(the right word is evading me currently) colour and patterns are concerned. sure, we've procured new designs, but they don't seem as if they'd provide much camouflage. for example, look at the overalls the soldier is wearing. the ammo jacket is starkly out of contrast with his clothes. not sure if he's going to be in jungles or deserts, either way his camouflage is fucked.
same is the case with the MARCOS. they have a digital pattern uniform which is light in colour. and they have a black BPJ/ammo jacket to wear over it which defeats the purpose.
if you look at the pics of US soldiers in afghanistan and iraq, you'd notice their gear blends decently with their surroundings. granted, they can afford it for their soldiers. but yaar kam se kam hum apne commandos ke liye to ye afford kar hi sakte hain. can someone please provide some more info on this.
