Estonian Camouflage Patterns

  • Estonian green tricolour amoeba pattern. Introduced during the 1980s. The shapes of the pattern is quite similar to those of the Soviet 3-TsV pattern. A tan variation of the same period has violet & ochre amoebic shapes on a sandy background, probably issued to personnel operating on beaches or in sandy regions.
