What is this camo?

The best I can find is that its a new Russian Digital Camo, perhaps a prototype or a new release, with Western Forces now adopting MultiCam this could be the Russian equivalent.

 
I can't find anything on it.

The size of the pixels, the fact there are no tags shown and camopedia has absolutely nothing on it for a pattern apparently introduced in 2009 makes me think it could be fake

 
I dont recognise it as an official Russian government camo but it is a digital variation, probably made up by the producer using the digital pixellated format.

 
Yeah, I've checked all of the ex-USSR countries and found nothing there either.

 
Probably a Ukrainian prototype camo pattern,looks like deformed MARPAT. Since this was a prototype you can pass this off as Ukrainian stuff that's often passed as ''Russian'' on fleabay.,not worth buying.

  • Heavily influenced by the Finnish M05 Maastopuku (forest) camouflage design, the Russian Ягель or Yeger (hunter) pattern has seen service with MVD special operations Internal Troops since it first appeared in the South Ossetia war in 2008. Although showing remarkable similarities to the Finnish design, the print screens are not precisely the same, with theYeger pattern having slightly different shapes and a different combination of colors.

The colour isn't as green but that may be the lighting? It also says there are lots of colour variations starting to appear of the Yeger pattern so maybe its one of these?

Personally I feel we should all switch to Rhodesian camo as Ian is such a fan of it :)

I don't think its Yeger, the pattern is quite different and the general flow of Yeger is diagonal whereas this one is straight and the pixels are different sizes and shapes.

Also Yeger appeared in 2008 and this is claimed to have been made in 2009. The seller would have also likely listed it as such if it was Yeger

Also I too agree about Rhoesian camo but unfortunately it costs and arm and a leg! Shame the imagine you linked is Bengadi OpFor camo not actual Rhodesian camo

This is:

The odd bit of repro rhodie camo does come up very occasionally and normally costs not too far from the original.

I have thought about getting some of the begadi stuff as its the closest to it without having to sell a kidney
