ditto if this is just a fad or what , but IMHO, SAF could use some digital camo as a force multiplier .

Current cuntries that use Digital camo :

Canada: CADPAT.TW CADPAT.AR
USA: ACU , MARPAT
Kingdom of Jordan: KAII
Finland: ARMY

what do you guys think?

SingaporeTyrannosaur SG

Digital camo is certainly the way to go...

And yes, it's a matter of time before we use it... I think the SAF have been messing around with it for some time now, if my sources are right.

HIGH TIME to change our uniform!!!!

Apart from our SOP helmet camo net, we look just like the Malaysians from a distance or low light condition.

This cannot continue. If it comes to war, the friendly fire scenario will be a nightmare!!

Digital camo is definitely the way to go.

beavan SG

when that happens, maybe malaysia might be looking at changing to digital camo too

SingaporeTyrannosaur SG

Actually everybody should.

There's going to be a uniform change this yr.
A total uniform change.
already annouced and in the emart is a kahki army shirt that replaces the grey admin wear.This however will be official uniform so it can be worn under the number 4 top and can also be won on it's on without the RSM giving u a scolding.

I'm in the log dept and we're getting ready for new uniforms to be issued heh

ktk SG

new no.4s?

can you give a clearer definition of the uniform? as in a total overhaul of both shirts and pants or just a khaki shirt?

LazerLordz SG

It will be a utility shirt like the US Army's fatigue collared shirt huh..or a t-shirt?

Shocked

Then..that means the entire sewing exercise has been a waste of money and time. Mad

CM06 SG

wtf....i just spent my saf credits on t-shirts....idiots man...must wait 2 years for new ones...

and i spent over $20 for the sewing!

grumble grumble grumble.

SingaporeMacross SG

New intake of BMT will get or not?

beavan SG

wahh waste all my time and money on sewing. expensive leh on a private’s pay.

wuming78 SG

oh my... if they are really going to change the no. 4 soon, then it's really poor planning to make us go through the exercise of changing the name tags and badges just not long ago.

btw, what kind of uniforms are we changing to? i like the current one the way it is...

to elaborate, they recently introduced a new army brown t shirt to replace the grey one. and this new shirt can be worn as inner shirt beneath no. 4 except under certain conditions (e.g. route march) which pose higher risk of heat injuries. apparently this new shirt is made of better and lighter material so can be worn under the no. 4

think we are really going the way of the US army...

LazerLordz SG

ah, so it's a t-shirt and not something like this below..

a light utility shirt..

beavan SG

yes, it just replaces your admin wear. i think grey looks too “jaily” for them.

The old temasek green uniforms had arms/formation badge. We scrapped those badges & now they are back.

The old PT kit had green T-shirt. We scrapped that & now khaki is back.

SAF reminescing about the good old days ah? Laughing

Anyway, a friend in log side over at HD 2 PDF tells me there are gonna shift the ranks for Specs & below to the collar soon a la US style. That's why the arms badge is on right collar & nothing on left collar. Interesting to see how they're gonna squeeze a MSG rank into that tiny space.

LazerLordz SG

The Americans did it. Most of their field uniforms have a tiny rank on their collar (for the Marines) or on the chest for the Army (new Army Combat Uniform).

Is this for some interoperability in the future? Confused

This ACU has the rank on the chest.

If you look at the guy on the right, his collar rank is small. And if we are going to do this, our MSG rank will be quite small as well. Laughing
