Underground: Once again, I gotta ask - does the SANDF have a dedicated PR company that takes its pictures cos they all look so professionally done
They're mostly taken by journalists. Those taken by the force's PR people are found at the website.

Doing what? They're regular troop members, nothing special.

issue originated,when there is rotation in service eg. if a person from "Vulcans unit" goes to "desert forces" he should change his camo to those that is in that unit,but it sometimes not done in NA,that's y u see upto 5 camo in one unit.

Active operators shouldn't do what is happening in that pic.

with camo Nigeria should just get a single standard pattern. Soldiers deployed in desert will just get new colours,not changing the pattern. Similar to what Australia.

Those guys are regular troops. The only person special in that batch of photos is the guy in black camo. You can clearly see his Special forces insignia on his left arm.

It is not by choice. Demand far outpace's the supply. All 130,000 active personnel have served in the north-east. The military's designers aren't able to sew enough of the required Camo to meet the rising demand.

Good.

These guys must be independent from the army and to be better equipped.

Totally get that. But the military should stop supplying different patterns,"designers" should supply a single pattern with a desert version. Done through simply changing the colours. A project similar to the USA project land warrior and SANDF African warrior is needed.

The only actual special forces operators we've all seen in the field are Navy SBS and Police ATF. None for the army yet.

We hope to see that. They've opened 2 new factories for the purpose of checking proliferation of Camo and non-conformity.

We'd have to wait and see how the factories perform.

Good. Majority of the clothing and webbing African forces use are from the 80s. Experimenting should cover all aspects from height,weight,body sizes etc. To enable soldiers to carry more equipment and ammo,that only comes with better webbing.

actually we need this in large quantities in NA
