Indeed it is! It is really rather needless but the SF have a lot of leeway in adopting equipment/uniforms on a need absis and not just as a collective but at an induvidual btn/team level. Furthermore when you have SF operators (from all btns) rotating through JK or the NE and then heading back to their home base they are likely to have accumlated a number of different uniforms depending on who they were operating with and where.

+ one minor point bro, to me 4 and 5 look the same, I don't think 4 is the Desert MARPAT, I haven't actually seen that in PARA (SF) use and 15 could well be a Sri Lankan training with Indian SF.

It is 100% Desert MARPAT bro just the shades are little darker due to low light.I have another one pic for that.

THIS is pic of PARA SF in himalayas.
This will clear ur doubt abt PARAs using desert MARPAT.We have same pattern but only difference is darker shades than the one Marines use.You can google to see diff shades of marpat with same pattern.
Thats not an sri lankan soldier.I know both of them personally on FB so no doubt about what they are wearing and their identity.

I stand corrected brother :D

I had no idea that the desert MARPAT was in use by any Indian force (outside of Punjab police's SWAT team :lol: )
 
They're out of control!

IMO, that really is too many camos. I have made my point known many times (to Abingdonboy) as well, that when we see pictures of Indian soldiers on the field, they do look like rebels donning different camos. And this is not about COIN operations. Many field deployment pictures have too many cam variations. For example pictures of our soldiers in Kargil theater is one example.

And this begs a question that no one has answered yet :-

How does procuring of battle camou uniforms differ in India, against those of other countries? I know soldiers in India buy their uniforms from desginated / accredited shops in cantonments. Is it he same in other countries like UK / US / Pakistan / etc?

Hope someone can answer this.

Not only various amounts of camo, camo that was standardized in the 90s are still circulating to this day. It's like they have several different vendors giving them all sorts of camo.
