Thanks. I read that the Ukrainian Army has now ordered some of those from Israel. They've clearly seen potential in them.
I'm thinking that the Jamaican Defence Force might have a practical use for them too; as they'd make a perfect hairnet for dreadlocks.

It could be like one of those 'I can't find my car nightmares'. In this instance, a 'Can't find my carbine' nightmare.
I'm wondering why this German anti-aircraft unit looks like it was camouflaged for a Zoo context, and not the North Sea, or the Baltic

Either that, or the soldier with the paintbrush, had been looking at his Grandad's collection of Eartha Kitt LPs.

Guess what, remember how the tank is called? Hint hint,

It is a Gepard actually. But yes still similar camo approach to a Leopard.

Still a Leopard bottom half

So, to become a Gepard, what was the Leopard bred with?

Came across these when I was doing my wirbelwind.
I think this would be hard to spot from the air given the surrounding terrain.

It is just that cheetahs have solid black spots while leopards often have those brown spots inside black. Theat is why they choose this camo here.

If the leopard has black dots in the center of the rosettes, then it's a jaguar.
