sir tasweeran nai uniform diyan ee post kar deyo?
The cloth is same or different?
i got one for myself today it anit that bad.
other than to look more delta and increased comfort and durability,the design is being done with sniper in mind
it's harder for sniper to guess high value personnel if the person is wearing the rank insignia at chest(and the rank insignia is readily removable,should it used velcro like standard new design and can be hide under vest/chest rig etc).
too much color(like the tape red in general's neck,the medal ribbon,etc) is a dead giveaway about the person's importance.
no comments about digital camouflage,etc(every design has it's proponent and opponent)

But I was told, in the case of PA, that in the event of a war or on a battle field all troops remove their rank insignia just for that same reason. And I believe everyone also sticks a red stripe on their arm.
1.It is a real shame that the armies of Pakistan and India continue living in the traditions of the British colonial masters. More so in India which boasts The Hodson Horse, a regiment used against PA in Chawinda in 65 War. The other was Poona Horse. If you recollect Hodson was a freebooter who had shot and killed Emperor Bhadur Shah Jafar's sons outside the Humayun's Tomb in cold blood and from behind. Many such regts/units exist. IA Staff College is at Wellington - not Tipu Sultan. What a bloody shame.
2. Reverting to the topic, it may interest you to know that when offered, Air Marshal Asghar Khan did not change the uniform of PAF from the British days. He kept going in khaki. Instead he spent the money in acquiring aircraft and eqpt. PAF got the new uniform later under Nur Khan.
May have to do with the Muslim Mughal's not exactly being favorites of the Indians.
Although their daily practices were borderline Islam if anything.
on the topic..
What about the DS boot.. still the same?? or new as well?
