The US Army Is "Jealous". Billions Of Military Uniforms Have Been Sold Out.

Not conducive to concealment

The US army recently decided to design a new camouflage uniform for soldiers, and the army uniform now spends up to 5 billion dollars in military uniform style. It has actually been in operation for less than 10 years.

Originally, this expensive military uniform is actually the product of the "comparison" between the army and the Marine Corps, which is not practical in actual combat.

After the Iraq war and the war in Afghanistan, in order to meet the needs of desert operations, the grey green mosaic striped camouflage garment called UCP came into being.

The design advertised a good hiding function for Army soldiers in the desert and other temperate areas.

An army expert who served in Iraq said that the only terrain that camouflage clothing could play a role in was the quarry, but in the light colored system.

It is more obvious that soldiers wearing dark colored bulletproof vests are likely to expose their whereabouts.

"If I can see my comrades in the theater activities far away, then the enemy will be able to see their tracks at a glance."

According to a textile technician at the US Army soldier system center, this is because of army camouflage.

In the design process, there is the intervention of "political power".

The army's senior officials were very jealous of the marine's high-tech camouflage style, and ordered the procurement department to customize the grey green pattern to make the army uniform more cool and more progressive than the Marine Corps.

Although some experts have pointed out that the design will bring counterproductive results to covert operations, their opinions have not been adopted.

At present, the US Army is developing a new camouflage suit.

But Army soldiers have to wear a brown green camouflage garment called MultiCam for the time being.

The US Army and navy have always been hostile to each other, mainly because of the fierce competition caused by the US military funding system. They often compete in the Congress and want to occupy more shares in the limited military expenditure. In order to display their value, the armed forces try to attract social attention, and from clothing to the appointment of senior military officials, they want to press the other side.
