KA2™ Special Forces Woodland Digital camouflage
Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan
In 2003, His Majesty King Abdullah II of Jordan embarked on a camouflage development programme to provide a pattern that would be exclusive to Jordan's Armed Forces and Security Forces. This programme, undertaken in association with HyperStealth Biotechnology Corporation, of Canada, resulted in a family of digital camouflage patterns that has put Jordan at the forefront of concealment techniques.
The initial design was completed in less than a month, while the colour refinements specific to Jordan’s diverse terrains required just over two months to conclude. Uniforms featuring the new digital pattern were fielded for test and evaluation in October 2003. The Jordanian Armed Forces were the first to approve the new camouflage design, followed by the Royal Guard, Security Forces and Civil Defence Directorate. His Majesty the King gave his final approval to the pattern in late October 2003.
As of 21 May 2006, the KA2™ family of camouflage patterns includes seven different colour schemes: KA2™ Desert Digital, which His Majesty the King has authorised for wear by the Royal Jordanian Air Force and the Royal Jordanian Land Force; KA2™ Arid/Woodland Digital, for wear by the Royal Guard; KA2™ Special Forces Woodland Digital; KA2™ Public Security Directorate Urban Digital; KA2™ Civil Defence Directorate Blue/Grey Digital; KA2™ Deep Blue Digital; and KA2™ Customs Desert Digital.
The KA2™ Special Forces Woodland Digital camouflage, shown here, is a four-colour digital pattern, comprising aliased blocks of black, red-brown and medium green on a light green background. To make the camouflage unique to Jordan, a map of the kingdom is embedded in the pattern.
