USAF Switches to OCP

Well now the USAF won't look retarded constantly, but what's to keep confusion between Army and Air Force without seeing rank?

At least faggots can't make fun of the tiger stripe anymore

I actually thought they gonna switch to all-terrain tigerstripe, so they won't look too much like the Army but also have a functional cammie.

im glad, tiger stripe is lame and this has some actual foundations in practical use at least on top of not spending a gorillion to develop just to be unique butterflies.

I would have loved all terrain tiger stripe. Wintergreen Digital was a stupid idea and whoever ok'd it needs to be hunted down and shot.

That would have made to much sense.

tiger stripe is shit tho

That's nice, but the real question is given the how the Army has developed dedicated pants with integrated knee pads and combat shirts with integrated ballistic upper arm protection for soldiers in combat roles, will we eventually see a return to plain color fatigues for personnel in non combat roles where camouflage isn't necessary since they already have a separate uniform from personnel in combat roles?

no. everything you listed is authorized for field/deployment use only. cheaper to have a standard uniform across garrison.

But given the uniforms that aren't the special combat uniforms aren't going to be used in combat roles, wouldn't cutting costs in such a way still be on the table?

Are they trying to hide the basedboy wearing the uniform?

ur shit tho

Air force will issue pink frilly socks.

The same we have been for years in the AOR: Different nametape font colors.

Good can we now put the Air Force back where it belongs? Army did fine with its own air force

Navy gives it's seaman standard-issue thigh-highs and matching shimapan. Air Force still hasn't caught on.

Still gonna wear my ABUs till they break apart fuck buying new shit

Flecktarn camo has a superior camo index in every environment tiger stripe does okay in.

The military makes you buy your own camo?

Can't speak for all branches, but enlistedmen in the army are issued 4 complete sets, plus 2 pairs of summer boots. Every year soldiers get a special tax-free clothing stipend, usually enough to cover one uniform or so if they're completely fucked. The quartermaster on any given post will also do free repairs and laundering, but that is usually wildly under utilized.

The short answer is yes, people buy their own uniforms. By the time i got out i had 15 sets in 3 different patterns in varying shades of salt, plus various cool-guy shirts and pants.

USAF has had OCPs for a while, see them all the time around AFSOC.

Why? There's no trees in the sky.

>lets waste more tax payer money
>hey, i really liked the army's multicam, lets steal it like we steal all the glory from the real warfighters

Yay.

Why would an airfaggot need a camo design? Bitches should just wear a solid color.

I can tell you for a fact that the clothing allowance does NOT cover the cost of even one new complete uniform.

Yes

They give you a clothing allowance but it ain't shit and uniforms break and tear pretty easy if you have a job that's not sitting on a desk like a fag all day

Never heard of any quarter masters for the air Force or else my cheap ass would be there all the time

Only retards are excited about the new uniform change I rather they invested the money in new gear or better training

You change the label on a bottle of piss it's still a bottle of piss

What bullshit.. chair force should by default get the gayest, shittiest camo second only to perhaps Navy (corpsman are exempt). If they actually operate, by all means, wear whatever is most effective for the AO, but fuck this gay bullshit. If even one of them calls me brother or pretends to not be an autistic POG whos CO is a 19 year old black woman, I swear I'm going to the marines and drawing a new crayon camo for me and my boyz

>but what's to keep confusion between Army and Air Force without seeing rank?
Is that really an important feature to have?

We don't want skinny air POGs looking like us. Don't you get it? POGs and civ filth already steal the valor of actual warriors day in and out, this only makes it worse. I'm gonna puke just thinking about one of them walking into a bar getting pussy just from looking like someone who actually risked their life and well being

>t. Buttblasted ROTC faggot.

Your underage is showing

Waste more money on uniforms. Good idea, fuckhead

What's it like to sit at a desk?

Asking for a friend, I really don't care

>lets keep having sperate uniforms across the same nation’s military

Fuck off retard you’re just as stupid as the US marines insisting no one else use their CADPAT ripoff

Nah it’s JROTC

Found the Semen/Autists

My desk is a room full of specialty tools i use to take apart, evaluate and repair aircraft parts. That if not done correctly, can kill people and destroy aircraft.

Not everyone is finance.

>sperging about a uniform the US Army didn’t even want that the US Air Force has been wearing for years

JROTC pls go

You’re a pog that could be easily replaced with civilians

Kill yourself, wrench faggot

Civilians are more expensive.

T.someone who works on a reserve base

Wrench faggot civilians are cheaper when you can just fire them and they can’t just get a profile to avoid work be a lazy nigger like all pigs and sleep under their desks.

>oh no I have to actually spend MY money on clothing

the absolute state of welfare recipients

this, the digi stripe is aids and retarded af

Lol, good luck on your next PT test

And good luck getting strafed by the Russians in uncontested skies like its fuckin Dunkirk
Also enjoy starving to death with no bullets cause no logistics into the middle of the fucking desert without the "chair" Force LMAO

t. jrotc kids

>t. Retard who couldn't get into ROTC

So you admit it then? You’re just some fucking never deployed cadet. Go do something useful and go to class kid.

I still suspect that's exactly why Tiger-Stripe Products made the pattern in the first place, solely to solicit to the Air Force.

It gets worse if you roll into the reserves or guard.

Please. They've said we're changing to OCPs at least 3 times since the early 2010s.

I dunno. When i rolled into my reserve unit after tech school. They gave me another APEC, snow pants and a snow jacket, second pair or steel toes, the waffle under clothes.

My, what a salty thread. Why do airmen want to LARP as soldiers so bad? Can't you see they don't want you?

If people were deposited every time someone said that people would call it universal basic income.

one cent*

We don't get to choose the camo.

I would rather just olive drab for the vast majority of the air force. Or have us go back to god tier BDUs

The Air Force really should have their own uniform. So everyone can visually point out the lame branches.

Because they want to come back and become USAAF again.

Fucking phone posters

Its $474 this year and was $327 last year.

The last year i got mine it was $306.

A complete set of acus costs around 120 at clothing sales, including patches and sewing.

Your alarming lack of ability to budget is, unfortunately, all too common among the enlistedmen.

>standing around in the desert doing nothing and occasionally hearing a shot is more impressive than maintaining multi-million dollar marvels of engineering

You're an idiot, with roughly 1,900 a month you can afford a damn uniform.

We literally had the same uniforms for all branches for decades. Until GWOT happened and everyone started looking for any excuse to spend money because funding was being thrown at anything and everything.

We should all be using the same utilities because it saves on costs and it looks better to boot.

We started wearing them in the AOR shortly after the Army did. AFSOC started transitioning to OCPs stateside like 4 years ago.

BDUs are the very ugliest military uniform in history.

>Not a single white person
>la few, la proud, la creatura

Especially the air force with their stupid policy of starching their uniform to the point they get ugly silver streaks on them

Air Force has nonners
Non-essential personnel.

Everyone but secfo and maintenance.

Well POG stands for "persons other than grunts" so yes they are all pogs

What about AF EOD?

My point is pilots have to perform at a much higher level than your average grunt, both physically and mentally, dealing with way more advanced weaponry both on their side and the side of their opponents, while risking their life from both attack and potential equipment failure in ways that your average grunt never will. They're superior warriors to your rank and file infantryman and the only one who is salty here is you because you couldn't make selection to be tier 1 or 2. They're also the cornerstone of US and modern Western military dogma, without them you simply wouldn't be able to win any war. You should have studied more at school and drunk less Colt 45.

Well aircrew is different, they are just weird. It’s grunts, pogs/fobbits and aircrew

Eh, maybe. Realistically a base can run without admin or finance.

>he thinks that dropping bombs on people is warfighting

the absolute state of Jow Forums

Couldn't chariforce just change headgear?

its ok to be POG homie nothing wrong with that, your insecurity is showing btw


still no grunts

so still 100% P O G

Yes it does you shitheel. Not an entire fucking issue of dress, service, and cammies, and all the garbage that comes with those, but it does indeed cover one, MAYBE even two. Maybe.

I won't spoil this for you, it would be bad for the armed forces. Your false sense of superiority to people smarter and more capable than you is essential for grunt morale.
