Is the Army planning to switch to"pixel pattern" B
The Marines sometime in 2002 switched to a"pixel pattern" for their BDUs. It suppose to blend in quicker then the Army's current Woodland pattern. Does the Army have something similiar planned?

I do know they're making some type of new BDU though, with little shoulder pockets and probably better materials and whatnot, but AFAIK, it still is the same woodland pattern.
Either way, at least they're not doing what the Air Force is doing.

The new Air Force BDUs will be far superior than anything the Army or Marine Corps can come up with. Sure, their camo will hide them in the forest, but what happens when we go to war in the um... well.... damn..... man I'm glad I wear a flight suit.
The most basic assumption about the world is that it does not contradict itself.

The kind you could probably pick up in any military surplus store or, Hell, Target, but with the AF logo on them (like how the Marines did it, IIRC), and I think made of better material and with more pockets.

WTF?! *dies*
Damn pencil pushing uniform designers. Who in their right mind would issue something like that to a military service?! They took perfectly good tigerstrip camo, screwed around with the scheme, and added new colors, all to make a SP or ground crewman stand out like Carrot Top in an Amish house.
