Collection: Australian AUSCAM DPCU Digital CAMO

A pixelated variation of Auscam (DPC) was developed in the early 2000s and initially tested by Police Tactical Units, but never officially adopted. In 2008, the Special Operations Task Group (SOTG) -- a small, specialized unit consisting of approximately 300 personnel from the 1st and 2nd Commando Regiments, the Special Air Service Regiment, the Special Operations Engineer Regiment, the Special Operations Logistic Squadron, and various other services, units and commands around Australia -- tested several different types of combat clothing in this pattern while deployed to Southern Afghanistan on counter-network operations Australian DOD website. Although effective and popular, the pattern was beat out for Afghanistan deployment by the Crye-developed version of Multicam. Surviving samples of the issue uniforms identify the design as Platacam, and within the pattern can be made out a miniature platypus skull that is part of the company logo.
