Elegido el nuevo patron de camuflaje por los Seals

Pues lo dicho, los Seals se han unido a mi plataforma en contra del dichoso Multicam, y lo han dado de lado, eligiendo el AOR1 y AOR2 como nuevo patron de camuflaje, ya es oficial.

AOR Comes out of the Closet and into the Seabag

The Navy has finally dealt with the issue of adopting proper uniforms for its ground forces in light of the fielding of the new Navy Working Uniform and its associated blue digital camo pattern optimized for hiding stains. Rumors had long surfaced that the mysterious AOR patterns would be adopted Navy wide for instances when Sailors would require camouflage uniforms for land combat effectively making the patterns naval in nature rather than dedicated for special operations use. Rumors also stated that the patterns would be altered ever so slightly with the addition of the Navy’s Anchor Constitution Eagle (ACE) design (see para 2). Apparently they were true on both counts or at least, sort of. Interestingly, the “Type II” or AOR 1 pattern will only be adopted by Naval Special Warfare and associated support forces. All other Sailors requiring desert camo will continue to use the current 3-color desert pattern first adopted almost 20 years ago during Operation DESERT STORM. Now it gets kind of confusing. The new “Type III” or AOR 2 pattern will be worn by ALL Navy personnel currently authorized.

Seems a little discombobulated. AOR 2 is fine for everybody, but AOR 1 will only be worn by NSW and that is AFTER the ACE is added to the pattern. Nothing like saying, “Hey, back off man, we’re Navy SEALs,” with your clothing. Also, sorry MAs. I had heard that you were going to be included in the new patterns but I guess it was not in the cards for you so keep on rocking those jaunty “Type I” NWUs.

El desert tiene buena pinta, a ver como luce el Woodland en AOR2

Pues aqui esta en normal:




Y en modo Crye a mi me parecer me mola mas:

Por cierto el AOR3 es el Multicam...

Creo que no hay AOR3 es digi3, y es este:

No seños, los AOR son patrones de camo, el 1 es Desert, el 2 es woodland y el 3 Multicam. El Digi es el patròn de corte. Los HPFU los hace Blackhawk y los DIGI son patrón Crye.

Mi no entender mu bien estos temas, pero las fotos que ha puesto peska del AOR 2 son los colores de la uniformidad multicam en digital. El woodland digital ya lo tienen los marines y es el MARPAT de toa la vida vamos (corregidme si me equivoco).

Vamos a ver
AOR1 DESERT



AOR2 WOODLAND




MARPAT WOODLAND



Las difencias son notables, el AOR2 es con unos colores semejantes al MC, pero en digital, y tag me reafirmo que no existe el AOR3, ni he visto fotos, ni he oido hablar de el.

Military photos, hay un post sobre ese tema, yo tampoco pensé que existiera hasta hace poco

MUY parecido al CADPAT en sus tonos... aquí en el norte es lo que usamos en mi grupo y funciona excepcionalmente bien en nuestros bosques.

Ahora que me había comprado el multicam...joer,¿me voy a tener que comprar tambien estos?Tenía que haberme hecho fanatico del encaje de bolillos o de puzzles de 5000 piezas...este hobby me está saliendo carísimo y apenas lo rentabilizo por el puñetero curro
