ESTDCU (ESTonian Digital Camo Uniform)[1] is the Estonian version of the digital camouflage uniform. The camouflage pattern was developed by Andres Lüll on contract with the Logistics Center of the Estonian Defence Forces.

History

[edit]

The first set of test uniforms was introduced in 2005.[2] ESTDCU was adopted in the EDF by 2006.[1]

Design

[edit]

The ESTDCU has an extreme likeness to Canadian military's CADPAT.[3][4]
