I thought that it was called Multitarn™

>Why does it work so well?

High amount of macro disruptive elements, along with dithering effect on those same elements which transitions into the micro part.

>new patterns for the Bundeswehr

Is it a desert pattern? I hope so.

It doesn't look cheap.

>the real deal today is camouflage that also works against night vision

This. I'd wager that OD gear with a small NV footprint would be more useful nowadays. MARPAT glows like a tacky christmas tree in NV and Multicam isn't all that better. There's also the problem that camouflage patterns tend to lose color in NIR, making them essentially one color.

>is almost perfect for our local terrain.

No it isn't, it only works inside dense grass. You stick out like a sore thumb if you lay down in rocks or ground. We need a new pattern, preferably something similar to Realtree but for Greek terrain.

Our camouflage is objectively superior to the majority of the trash other countries use, but it is far from being perfect or even optimal. If our military wasn't a pile of shit we would have proper camo patterns for both Greek and Turkish dessert terrain and we would also make sure the gear and weapons are also painted in the camo, rather than sticking out and making the entire pattern worthless.

3rd picture, does it look like "almost perfect for our local terrain" to you? Because to me it seems that even if he laid down in the ground in those bushes he would still stick out like a sore thumb. Meanwhile pictures 1 & 2 are excellent. I know they are edited and the image has increased contrast and sharpness to make them seem more effective, but you can't come up with any other pattern that is superior. We should - and must, get off our asses and make something similar for Greek rocky terrain.

Naked rock and ground are usually a terrain for battle when you defend military installations, it's a rarity for the usual battlegrounds in Greece that are coastal shrublands and conifer woodlands 90+% ot the times.

> proper camo patterns for Turkish dessert terrain

That's a lot of wishful thinking, given our projection of force capabilities, but I agree that our camo when we go out playing the waterboys in the sand for NATO and Greater Israel should be more customized to near eastern subdesert environments than our current no-effort "shitted-on and then bleached" pattern.

Given that the cover positions in the photo are kermes oak bushes/trees that along with Aleppo and Turkish pines which form over half of the Greek wilderness, yeah I think it's pretty gud. If you are out in the open you are pretty fucked either way and if the camos were a bit paler they would still provide decent camouflage even in this artificial terrain of compressed soil and cleared grass. If anything we need summer camos more oriented towards yellow grass and military camp environments since these are the only often used for combat grounds that the standard forest lizard pattern is subpar for.
