Urban Camo

If you live in a city then woodland camo might not be your thing…you might be going for more of a Batman look as in Batman Begins. If you are prepping to bug in then some of these patterns may be for you; after all, going out at night might be the safer alternative. I don’t much care for the urban stuff as it has a limited working environment and is all but useless during the day, but it might just be your cup of tea. Also check out my other camo databases below and let me know what you think; and like any database, I will be adding to this as I discover more patterns.

Universal Camouflage Pattern

 

The Universal Camouflage Pattern (UCP), also referred to as ACUPAT (Army Combat Uniform PATtern) or Digital Camouflage (“digicam”) is the military camouflage pattern currently in use in the United States Army’s Army Combat Uniform. The pattern was chosen after several laboratory and field tests that occurred from 2003 to 2004, although it has recently been established that UCP may well have been adopted without field testing against other patterns. Its pixelated pattern is a modification of the United States Marine Corps’ MARPAT camouflage pattern which is simply a re-coloured version of the earlier Canadian CADPAT scheme.

GHOSTEX

 

 

HyperStealth Biotechnology Corp. and ADS Inc. launched the Joint Venture “Ghostex”™ an Advanced Camouflage System where operators can choose from a wide variety of unique camouflage patterns for their uniforms to better match operational areas. This system is named Ghostex (meaning Ghost Textures) in honor of the U.S. Ghost Army of WWII, (23rd Headquarters Special Troops). The Ghost Army specialized in Camouflage, Concealment and Deception (CCD).

CUEPAT (Canadian Urban Environment Pattern) Trial Uniforms

CUEPAT-1 version-1

Printing by HyperStealth, Uniform Assembled by DropZone Tactical.  The pattern is based off of a series of polarized flows, Horizontal, Vertical, and 45 degree angles used subtly with the VTM colours to help simulate common urban building practices, the scale of the pattern has also been adapted to break the human shape to conceal detection and movement.

CUEPAT-2 version-2

Printing by HyperStealth, Uniform Assembled by DropZone Tactical.  This is the unconventional pattern in field trials, previous computer simulations showed this pattern to be quite effective for both outdoor and indoor urban environments. The perceived depth within the pattern throws off the ambient and focal vision from noticing the target.
