Why did the US use M81 camouflage for so long when it was worse than third world Africam even in the jungle?

Xavier King
Matthew Richardson
Because M81 woodland was perfect for the African jungle.
Mason Scott
But it wasn't. It was worse than third world lizard patterns.
Ryan Mitchell
The army had a shit process for evaluation of new weapons and equipment after ww2. Look at the m14.
Jonathan Clark
When (and if) you manage to not sound like a third world lizard I'll believe you.
Ian Miller
ERDL was developed when fading was still a major consideration for patterns, no one thought about this when it stopped being a problem.
Jack Wilson
That might actually be real.
Noah Gonzalez
Lizard is a French pattern though, and was designed specifically for operating in the jungles of Africa and Indochina, whereas M81 was designed to be a genric woodland pattern which would be ok for use in both North America and Europe.
Brayden Moore
Lizard Pattern was the shit, it should have never been phased out.
Liam Cooper
It's what boomers thought was state of the art despite already being like a 40 years old by that time.
Parker Lee
This is the same military that allowed the Marines to PATENT the best military pattern of the three services, essentially banning the other two from getting to use said best camo.
What the hell military? Whose genius idea was that, to allow one service to prohibit the other two services from using the best camo?
Jacob Lewis
The marines have a good woodland and desert pattern, but a mixed camo pattern is pretty much good for most purposes.
Gavin Hill
>implying gear shouldn’t be solid neutral colors like the Chad ranger green
Robert Allen
I'll bite...why should gear be solid colors instead of a camo pattern?
Camden Myers
because the next conflict was expected to be with Russia and take place in Europe. that's also why all aircraft were painted in the same euro-camo btw, it works very good, if you ever served you would understand better
Luis Bailey
what movie?
Adam Murphy
Tears of the Sun. It's shit.
Benjamin Wright
Tears of the Sun. It's brilliant.
Connor Jones
>lizard patterns
I actually really like them. Like the gay cousin to tiger stripe.
Jaxson Wood
so the enemy can see the outline of your huge balls

(((Coincidence)))? I think not. MultiSCAM is Jewish snakeoil at its worst
Benjamin Mitchell
>making a camo that is absolute shit at concealing you in both environments
>good

Dominic Jones
What do you mean by fading? My cryes still fade lmao
Leo Hughes
Marines are the problem. You wouldn't have seen any other branch trying to pull this shit.
James Hernandez
I'm all for hating kikes but didn't the Germans invent the first digi camo
Nicholas Jenkins
Lie to me. Just don't lie to yourself.
Gavin Gutierrez
>I wonder who could be behind thi-
It's NBF. It's Nathan Bedford Forest.
Get the fuck out of this board. Nobody likes you.
Levi Cruz
Lizard pattern is designed for a jungle. M81 is not.
