Rhodesian Camo is a unique, distinctive camouflage pattern that was developed for the armed forces of Rhodesia (now the Zimbabwean territories). The pattern was created for the conditions of the African terrain, which is dominated by savannas, tropical forests and semi-desert areas.
Rhodesian Camo was based on irregular patches in shades of green and brown that blend well into the natural environment. The camouflage provides the ability to blur the human silhouette in open terrain and areas with dense vegetation. It has proven particularly effective in operations conducted by Rhodesian special units.
The Rhodesian Camo pattern played a key role during the Rhodesian conflict of 1964-1979. Although today Rhodesia has disappeared from the maps, the camouflage pattern remains a reminder of the region's military history. Rhodesian Camo is popular among collectors, military fans or survivalists. The pattern itself is original, making users stand out clearly in a crowd.
