Isn't that desert MARPAT?

I've seen a couple of pictures earlier where some norwegian soldiers have been using MARPAT

Its not MARPAT no, I have no information about this other than the picture, but I know Cato-Ringstad made this camo a while ago

Hmm, it looks suspiciously like MARPAT.

On Cato Ringstads website it does say that it's a M/2000 uniform with a digital scheme. But it doesn't say MARPAT though, but it looks heavily inspired from the MARPAT scheme.

It looks similar to the Russian desert uniform.

the thing here is that the norwegian desert camo was never actually tested, they first used the US tri-color, but then made a version with the norwegian pattern, and the tri-color colors. never actually tested before put in use, but why they choose to look at a new desert camo now that they are backing out of Afghanistan I don't get.

ofcourse it looks like the russian and the marpat, they are all digital desert camos with similar intended use and therefore colors.

Better late than never. The Dutch are also developing a new camo, even though our main contribution in A'stan ended over 2 years ago, and the camo, if the project won't be cancelled, won't be delivered from 2014 onwards. It's good that the Norwegians are also updating their camo, I never found their desert cammies effective compared to others, although their woodland version seems to work fine in Norway.

Not movies, really, but some more FSK/HJK pics. They seem to be getting all the publicity these days.
