Army had earlier announced that all its soldiers will get a new uniform and they already started changing the uniforms in 2004 and had commented that all the soldiers will get the new uniforms by the end of this year.
The new uniforms have been digitally designed and are called as ACU or Army Combat Uniform. The only question that remains is that are these uniforms efficient in hiding the soldiers...?
The new camouflage pattern has been derived from the Marine Corps camo scheme. The design is bitmapped and the design is then directly printed on the nylon. According to the officials the ACU is good in hiding people if they are in a city or a desert.
The dress also has very low green color and can be easily spotted when the soldiers are in a place where there is some vegetation. At such places the soldiers are easily detectable and that can be risky for them.
Moreover the final choice for the uniform was made without any feedback from the soldiers.
Please leave some comments and tell us which uniform is much better.
