Both not suited for our terrain
Like I said before, the Mongol camo looks better suited for our terrain, stuff like this can be given to jungle warfare specialists
(Also, the VHS produkt bullpup rifle looks slick(•‿•))
Edit: It's a woman, didn't notice it first time

Whatever pattern/BDU we choose has to be based on the a scientific process. We have to do R&D with troops in the field. This goes for both the pattern and the material used in the uniforms. BDU is not something an RFP can be issued for.

Ya'll Nibbiara what about the idea of reversible camouflage clothing, with summer patterns on one side, autumn patterns on the other.

Simple- war. In Afghanistan, excerpts from captured Taliban prisoners revealed that US army ACUs made it easier for the Taliban to spot from a distance, negating any element of surprise. Infact, throughout the Global war on terror, special mission units like the Rangers, SEALs, Delta, etc. opted out of wearing digital camo ACUs, because in the environments and conditions they fought in, woodland pattern camo worked better at concealment. The way we fight war might change with the weaponry of modern warfare constantly getting upgraded and more lethal, but the unwritten rules of firefights remains the same. Don't get seen before you can see your enemy.

And wearing a digital camo uniform might make you look cool, but it's a bullet magnet.

The same goes for India's special forces. While the Marcos, Cobras and Garuds wear a digital camo pattern, Para SF still goes for the tried and tested Woodland camo. And they fade out their uniforms, so that it can blend better with the environment.

This is what gets you saved and partially hidden.

That being said, in an urban combat environment, it doesnt matter what you wear. Digital camo or Woodland pattern camo, it doesnt matter, you'll still get noticed from a mile away. Unless you grow a beard, wear the local civilian clothing and conceal your weapon.

The this as a necessary means to justify the rationale behind sticking to the current woodland uniform pattern instead of going pixelated and disruptive. The disruptive pixelated battle pattern that was termed as modernized was created as a better means of camoflague both during the day and night, which meant it should actively conceal someone from a blind eye or a night vision or an infra red goggle. The downside was, you needed to make a different uniform for every combat environment to mantain that rationale of concealment. Which meant 4 uniforms for 4 combat environments- woodland, desert, urban and desert urban. On an average, an infantry soldier goes through 4 uniforms a year, which means 16 uniforms a year if you kept a disruptive pattern.

Some veteran said this.

Ya'll Nibbiars I don't think pixelated is a good choice digital yes but pixilated not always work's. Better we do more testing on the camo. Even paki and the Mlecchas uniforms are digital but not pixelated. The starry sky is digital also quite effective.

It’s not the Digital Camouflage in itself but the UCP or Universal Camo Pattern which is Digital Camo pattern with Grey and White shade made them a bullet magnet. UCP is used by Indian Navy MARCOS and some units in CRPF.

Ya'll Nibbiars this uniform is jigsaw not pixelated or digital as some one stated.

Ya'll Nibbiars what about Flecktarn or the Splittertarnmuster?.

Pakis use Pixelated and Semi-pixelated Digital uniforms on US BDU style uniforms. except for PISSG and FC Balochistan every other force in Pakistan uses Pixelated Uniforms.

Ya'll Nibbiars they are digital but not fully pixilated. Even to say its semi pixilated would be a joke.

 

[MIDKNIGHT FENERIR-00]

Ya'll Nibbiars what about Flacktern or the Splittertarnmuster?.

I support Flecktarn. It’s one of the best Camo Patterns in the world.

Ya'll Nibbiars how about the Jentai. It's a varient of the Flacktern but with a different pattern.

Ya'll Nibbiars it's pixilation is just to much large. And rather looks like a Jig Saw.
