Camouflage Daguet


Camouflage Daguet is the French military's current desert camouflage. It is the desert variant of Camouflage Europe Centrale. It was introduced in 1989, consisting of broad horizontal of tan and brown stripes on a sandy background.

History

Although it was introduced in 1989, this French desert camouflage model is commonly known as "Daguet" because it is closely associated with Operation Daguet, where French conventional forces used it for the first time.
Prior to the adoption, the French military never considered another camouflage uniform again because of their association of being defeated in post-colonial conflicts.

Pattern

The Daguet pattern has been issued in separate uniforms for French troops deployed in countries/territories with desert terrain.
