Supposedly, it's been used by certain elements of the Italian Special Forces in Afghanistan and it's basically a derivative of Crye Precisions Multicam camo.
Here's a little bit of info that I found about it over at the "strike-hold" blog: http://www.strikehold.net/2009/12/20/other-variants-and-derivatives-of-multicam/






And, since this is a military camo thread, I'll go ahead and post the "couch acu" pic and get that out of the way early.

The acronym sounds familiar but, at this particular moment, I can't seem to remember who uses it.

I'd probably buy some of that.  Actually looks better than multicam.

I wonder how well it would do in both the mixed woods and the pine forests that are located all throughout my area here in south georgia?

I like the camo, but not all of the dang velcro squares all over it.  I don't need any morale patches to hunt.

I would think Foliage Green and Ranger Green would do similarly.  I don't think its particularly hard to blend into a dense forest, but all of the recent major conflicts have been in desert regions where everything is FDE/Tan/Coyote Brown and more so out in the open.

If he saw you first then you'd be in a lot of trouble in that one second. OD works better the grimier and dirtier you get.

I don't know, I always thought the uniform was more comfortable and hid dirt/oil/grease better that utilities did, however if given a choice I would go with coveralls every time.

My buddy and I are into WW2 reenacting and also play airsoft in our gear.  I've been told multiple occasions that my OD HBTs blend into the forest better than multicam.  My buddy, who has camo HBTs (41st armored infantry regiment impressions) has also received similar comments.  The scrim in our helmets blends great too.  I'll stick with my OD utilities, they work well when employed correctly.

One of multiple impressions he does.  Plus that camo often stuck around longer than you might imagine.  There are photos of it still being worn in early '45, though very limited by then.

Can somebody explain the camo racket?

I've seen a bunch of different patterns chosen over the last 20 years and they all (more or less) suck equally.

Separation between "new" and "old" seems to be about 2 hours in Photoshop.

More fashion than science?

Yep, the human figure is very easy to detect. The only way you can effectively camouflage yourself is by breaking up your silhouette.

No modern army can be successful on the battlefield unless they have some stupid flecktarn-inspired terribly-colored new uniform every few years. Just ask Israel!

Glorious People's Revolutionary Gorka-3 is plainly a much excellent combat uniform:

Supposedly, it's been used by certain elements of the Italian Special Forces in Afghanistan and it's basically a derivative of Crye Precisions Multicam camo.


Here's a little bit of info that I found about it over at the "strike-hold" blog: http://www.strikehold.net/2009/12/20/other-variants-and-derivatives-of-multicam/

And, since this is a military camo thread, I'll go ahead and post the "couch acu" pic and get that out of the way early.

Here's a youtube vid of a guy who basically disappears while using traditional OD greens in a spring/summertime green environment. Watching him do this gave me a whole new respect for ODG uniforms::

His ODs didn't seem that effective. I found him in less than a second in each scene
 




It's not hard. Don't look for the green, just look for the unnatural solid shape. I'm not saying that OD isn't effective, his just weren't.




This. He was a dark lump.




 
Didn't help him that he also was right in the center of the camera shot for each scene.

OD with some local dirt rubbed in is as effective as anything to come since.
