The Yugoslav 'purple tiger stripe' is a colour variation of the Yugoslav 'green tiger stripe'. It is a three-colour design, comprising horizontally-aligned brush strokes of chocolate brown and deep navy blue on a twilight blue background. It was introduced into service, in 1996, as an urban camouflage pattern, with police anti-terrorist and special operations units.
