I was in northern Iraq in 2010. There was a Turkish liaison officer stationed at the base I was at that wore a uniform I remember looking like arid tiger stripe but had a very yellow hue. I’ve always been curious about the origin and use of that pattern but have never seen it since.
@@huitzplochit I did check camopedia. It was nowhere to be see. It must have been some sort of nonstandard pattern. The guy wearing it wasn’t exactly special ops either. He was more of a 50 something bureaucrat type. Maybe it started out as arid tiger stripe and he didn’t follow washing instructions. 😄 I actually doubt that’s true but memory of it is also getting old. I remember my impression of it but if I saw it today it probably wouldn’t look exactly as I remember it.
As a Turk I hated the camo pattern and the design of the uniform throughout my military service. It felt very old fashioned and the neck area of the uniform looked so bad that during photoshoots I used a thermal scarf to disguise it(which is forbidden but not enforced in most areas). While the pants were comfortable and didn't let much cold in, I found that the shirt let so much cold in from the neck area and it had no wool in it which made it impossible stay warm if you were standing post out in the cold. Looking at the photos that were taken during my service, one couldn't distinguish if I went there during 1970s. The zipper pockets also had around 7-8 cigarette butts from the person who used the uniform formerly, but it was a good lesson for most to not litter and some even had letters written for us from those that did their military service prior to ours(they were washed with the letters still inside but I think the material was of good water resistant quality that nothing inside was wet, while the sleeves of the coat were somewhat soggy!). I believe most of those camos are now going to equip the Somalian soldiers which is the reason some of their commando units can be seen wearing the Turkish camo.
@@Saturnit3 im pretty sure that all turkish soldiers get issued brand new uniforms and boots, not reused ones. Things like helmets on the other hand are reused

as someone served wearing those and been in the woods with more than 10 countries' personnel, nano is the best camo ever. I had difficulty seeing my friendlies who were about 50 meters away from me laying around the trees.
It looks similar to Olja, a Russian pattern developed from A-TACS FG but with sharper edges to give it more depth. Obviously not the same but both fall in between the traditional high contrast sharp edge patterns and the very blurry A-TACS pattenrs.

Some details on the July 15th coup: In around 2008-2009, Erdoğan (Allied with Gülen at the time) framed many high ranking Kemalist leaning officers with the help of Gülen. The officers were purged and replaced by Gülenists. (Ergenekon-Balyoz trials) These Gülenist officers were the ones doing the last coup. Ironically Erdoğan was fearing a coup at the time of 2008 because he was dismantling the "oppressive" secular state and an e-memorandum was released by the Chief of Staff at the time.
This is pure lie. Gulen was always in conflict with Erdogan, one of his talks he mentioned how Erdogan hates his group and that hatred started far before 2008.
@@__user__name__ There are photos of Erdogan sitting at the skirt of Gulen and speeches of him praising Gulen and asking for his return from exile in the US. He openly supported Gulen's foundations, schools and specifically his newspaper Zaman. Zaman was distributed for free to many households, without consent, in the expense of taxpayers. He turned a blind eye and/or openly supported the nepotism in the Army in the expense of Kemalist officers who actually cared about the country and it's security. Me and many other people in radio, tv and journalism businesses lost their jobs with no hope to find a proper one thanks to Erdogan's purge of free media in order to replace it with Gulenist counterparts. It was impossible to find a job in the government sector unless you either knew someone from the Gulenist movement or Erdogan's clique. They fell apart because narcissistic power-hungry psychopaths do what narcissistic power-hungry psychopaths do best, and see anything and everything as their enemy and they will always crave more.
@@__user__name__ Lies? Lol no. He was saying stuff like "We miss you hocaefendi please come back." in tears back in the day all the time. Erdoğan literally owes his inital power gain to him. Gülen and Erdoğan are the same shit, one just sucks up to the US more. Islamists are a threat to Turkish democracy and the founding ideals of the republic, it doesn't matter which side they are on.
Kemalist were also puppets of US. Remember who did military coup at 1980? Remember Cevik Bir who was in love with US and Israel. You know nothing but apt at slandering...
The relationship between Gulen's movement and Erdogan fell apart in 2013, but by then, they had already infiltrated the government and military. Their schools were widespread, to the point where it became difficult to find secular schools in some regions. The most successful students were offered financial support and resources to integrate them into the movement. They were required to attend prayers and undergo indoctrination. The events of 2016 weren't even a coup-it was more of a purge. The movement believed that Kemalists who opposed Erdogan would support the coup, which is why they referenced Ataturk's words. However, the highest-ranking officials had no idea about the coup, and some were even detained by lower-ranking soldiers. After the event, many members of the movement in key positions switched sides. Those involved in politics remain largely untouchable, as prosecuting them would implicate the AKP as well. It's important to remember that both sides, the Gulen movement and AKP, have caused significant harm. The Gulen movement has long been considered a project of the U.S. to create a "green curtain" between Russia and the Greater Middle East, and AKP's power and wealth initially stemmed from U.S. support through Gulen. Hopefully, we will see a brighter future without either of them.
@TurquazCannabiz There are other candidates but yeah. Imamoglu seems like a terrible idea. To me, he just seems like a western pawn. Afterall that's what Biden said, he said they will work with the opposition in Türkiye. If the leader of your country is placed by someone else, then they have none of your interests at heart. But even talking about replacement, if the AKP wins again, who will be the one to take Erdoğan's place. It seems like it will be that Kurdish/Turkish intelligence agency guy, Hakan Fidan.

How can a person make a whole video about a countries camo patterns, explain the political situation and still get that countries capital wrong. The fact that he calls İstanbul capital of Turkey is simply moronic. Otherwise, great video.
Being in a hurry, I think it was smart of Turkey to modify France's "woodland type" camo by incorporating the black into the brown. I wore US Woodland during my time in the US Army in the 1980's, and even then thought that black has NO place in camo uniforms. Shadows (black) create themselves.
Maybe, but the country has history with many coups. The only difference bering the ratio of Kemalists to non Kemalists. Whats making less sense is that preacher Gulens involvement. But who knows.
Well researched video. 👍 I really could not distinguish the difference but some people noted that turkish gendarme camouflage and the similar one used by Azari army have a slightly more appealing view. For me all look the same which suggests the camouflage are indeed working 😂
The newer one does a better job as a camouflage pattern. It does resemble ATACS FG but more sharper but at least we didn't get the M2018 in the army anymore. Hopefully it will stay so
I kinda like the interim 2018... possibly because of its similarity to the French. Old nano seems to always be faded to a grey mess that resembles UCP. New nano is looking like the new CADPAT MT.
i did not use this camouflage when i was in the military in 2022. Recruits who do their military service for one month use it, those who do compulsory military service for six months like me do not use this camouflage (And only some professional soldiers use it)
That's a interesting take on compulsory service. How do you do a single month enlistment? Even the six months is particularly short but you could get a reasonable level of competency in basic weapons handling, field craft and communication maybe even intermediate levels. But a month you can't teach a newly hired McDonald's employee to even handle a single job in a month and expect them to work effectively. Let alone handle weapon's and work under any sort of combat like conditions. 😅
@@DanielVisOneCade yea. Program was actually very cramped with lots of things but it is never applied since higher ups don't want to give an effort for a month old soldiers. So not much except shooting. The rationalite behind this,in my opinion, is compulsory service is so distruptive for civilian life and you can't just remove it in Turkiye.
@@DanielVisOneCade Its a major case of socio-economic divide within the nation. The rich are really rich and few while the poor are really poor and numerous so much so that even compulsory service divides us.
@@DanielVisOneCade I received my education well, I did my duty in the KTBK, I was a mortar marksman KTBK, that is, the Turkish Cypriot Peacekeepers are different from the Turkish Armed Forces, and there are constant exercises and training, because there is still a war situation on the island of Cyprus, have a good day

Turkey didn’t just get involved they went after Kurds forcing america to step back from working with Kurds who have their own funny Chinese copy of marpat.
that camo was the worst ever, It lacked most of features the other camos have. I hated wearing it during my 18 days conscription. I was like a bag of potato because quartermaster didn't want to climb to top shelf to pick up two size smaller one. Used ones allegedly was sent to Syria for FSA.
You missed to say that Fetullah gülen he is hosted in secured compound in states. Or you miss that unintentionally 😅you are making me loathing me so much. You are missing that since funding Turkey never played the game of Zionism . You have to read a bit more about Turkish history. Just about 3000 years before States were established.

@@DanielVisOneCade yea. Program was actually very cramped with lots of things but it is never applied since higher ups don't want to give an effort for a month old soldiers. So not much except shooting. The rationalite behind this,in my opinion, is compulsory service is so distruptive for civilian life and you can't just remove it in Turkiye.
@@DanielVisOneCade Its a major case of socio-economic divide within the nation. The rich are really rich and few while the poor are really poor and numerous so much so that even compulsory service divides us.
@@DanielVisOneCade I received my education well, I did my duty in the KTBK, I was a mortar marksman KTBK, that is, the Turkish Cypriot Peacekeepers are different from the Turkish Armed Forces, and there are constant exercises and training, because there is still a war situation on the island of Cyprus, have a good day
This camo reminds me of the Indian camo
Kindly Do one about new indian army uniform.
-Uniform 64 approachin station area
The other reason why I brought it out was because it was cheaper to produce
Walther experimenting to properly replace an equipment with proper camouflage uniforms they probably make this one as like he said stop Gap solution they probably just need to make something quick and fast to accept everybody to replace the old controversial piece ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ but hey that's just my personal thoughts
Turkey didn’t just get involved they went after Kurds forcing america to step back from working with Kurds who have their own funny Chinese copy of marpat.
It looks fine. Get it dirty and blend right in.
that camo was the worst ever, It lacked most of features the other camos have. I hated wearing it during my 18 days conscription. I was like a bag of potato because quartermaster didn't want to climb to top shelf to pick up two size smaller one. Used ones allegedly was sent to Syria for FSA.
as a turkish peson i think this is one of the worst camos we made i think we should have keeo going with m2008 until this new camo
that's badass how the citizens won
From a Uniform you made such a political statement That excludes you from any further career in the US army.
Most of this camo in Ukraine probably followed the Syrian fighters who switched conflicts.
@@Shatnerpossum ukraine soldiers were really using surplus in the early days of the invasion
You missed to say that Fetullah gülen he is hosted in secured compound in states. Or you miss that unintentionally 😅you are making me loathing me so much. You are missing that since funding Turkey never played the game of Zionism . You have to read a bit more about Turkish history. Just about 3000 years before States were established.
probably one of the worst decisions the MoD made. It was utter garbage.
You must be american. İstanbul isnt the capital never was. Ankara is
“Progressive”
Its now used for the "paid military service" soldiers, lol
🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷😎
I'm an Erdogan supporter, but Erdogan in that uniform looks like a rookie soldier. He is always good looking in the fine suits.
Your definition of gülen movement must be a joke.
Coup from CIA😂
Initially "It looks like a rip-off of French uniform patterns".
Kemalist are better than gulenist
As a Erdoganist i have no hate against them as long as they are not again in power 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Long live Erdogan ❤
Lira worth dirt lol
