-* A new pattern, named ''Celoreng Harimau Kumbang'' (panther camouflage), was tested in the early 1990s, ostensibly to replace the faithful brushstroke M70 design. The design also had a nickname, ''Loreng Daun Pisang'' (banana leaf camo). The design was tested by a unit of the Royal Rangers that were stationed in the Cameron Highlands, but primarily saw service with ''Pertahanan Awam'' (Civil Defense) personnel and certain government ministries during its short life. Nicknamed "Cameronian," the pattern was only retained in service for approximately two years (1993-94) and was never officially adopted by the armed forces. The Cameronian design seems to have faded with repeated washings and may have been passed over general adoption for this reason.

-* A new style camouflage design was introduced to the Malaysian Armed Forces in 1994. Known locally as ''Harimau Belang'' (or "tiger stripes"), the M94 "woodland-stripe" pattern (also referred to as ''zebra-stripe woodland'') features horizontal stripes in black, brown and green on a khaki background. This camouflage pattern would eventually be phased out in favor of a [[digital patterns|pixelated camouflage design]]; however it was still in service with some Malaysian units as recently as 2014.

-* The oldest camouflage pattern in Malaysian service is the M70 [[Brushstroke]] pattern, loosely based on the WW2 and 1950s era British designs. Several minor variations have been produced printed on different types of abrics. The pattern was in use with the Malaysian Armed Forces from the 1970s to approximately 1994.

Several minor variations have been produced, printed on different types of fabrics and with occasional slight differences in dye batches. The pattern was in use as the standard issue combat uniform with the Malaysian Armed Forces from the 1970s to approximately 1994, when it began to be phased out. The exception to this phasing out has been the Johor Military Force (JMF), or '''Askar Timbalan Setia Negeri Johor,'' which functions as a kind of private army or royal guard force of the Sultan of Johor. The JMF continue to use an updated/modern production version of the brushstroke camouflage pattern to this day.
