Multicam vs ACU, Which is the better camo for a FLC (fighting load carrier) vest to be used in the woods. We have dense under brush mixed with pine, sweet gum and oak trees.

Answer (1 of 3): This type of digital camouflage is not very effective. This camouflage will stand out like a sore spot in wooded, desert, grasslands, and mountainous environments. The blue digital camouflage can do well in river environments, but those areas are minimal. [1] This is better. ...
Answer (1 of 22): I think many answers confound different things, and so does this question. It depends a lot on what you mean by "digital camo" and "traditional camo". Most people in the US, when they say things like that, are comparing ACUs to the traditional BDUs the Army used to wear, or eve...
3-Color Desert Camo (DCU) UCP (ACU) Woodland Camo. Tan Flight Suit. OD Flight Suit. Our photos were shot on a tripod with a Canon EOS 40d using a Canon EF-S 17-85mm f4-5.6 IS USM.

First unveiled in June 2004, it is the successor to the Battle Dress Uniform (BDU) and Desert Camouflage Uniform (DCU) worn from the 1980s and 1990s through to the mid-2000s, respectively.
CADPAT came in 2 variants, the woodland variant and the temperate variant. The ACU on the other hand, came out in one variant: GREY. According to some smart-ass general, they claimed the ACU is a UCP or Universal Camouflage Pattern. Now judging from the above, the ACU works well in Mountain Terrains.

Does ACU camouflage work? In woodland environments, the ACU was equally effective as the BDU. In a desert environment, the ACU was close to as effective as the DCU. In an urban environment, the ACU was equally effective as the BDU or DCU. Why camouflage is pixelated now?
The ACU blouse will have a zipper and Velcro front closure, so the button problem is not an issue. Q.13 Why was the digitized print chosen over the more traditional camouflage?

Answer (1 of 8): Camouflage work the best when deployed in the area they are intended to be designed for and used by someone that know how to use it well, pretty much like every other object. It will blend in the environment and it will make your eyes confused . And yes they work. Nope? Alright....
Much ado about nothing. Camo is designed to be effective in a given environment. ACU was designed by computers as a compromise for all environments. The military had the best camo ever with 'olive drab'. Blended in everywhere, green, brown trees, grass, light, dark. They got silly and had to follow the UN's lead.
Soldiers dubbed UCP camo a "digital camouflage," as the mix of colors resembled computer pixels. Obviously the effectiveness never lived up to the promise. This has since led back to the OCP, which isn't all that different from the patterns used during World War II. The Universal Camouflage Pattern has finally been put out to pasture.

Answer (1 of 6): It's hated because the Army was searching for a universal camouflage pattern that would work equally well in any environment. So, they did a lot of research, spent a lot of money, and came up with a pattern and color that worked equally bad in every environment. The only place i...
