Multicam and Atacs are designer stuff. Sounds expensive and it is expensive, but the army already has and is issuing Mulitcam so how much more would it cost to design yet another pattern. They make my brain hurt.
Exactly, multicam is an excellent patern and the soldiers love it, it will cost 10x as much and take 10x as long to develop a new pattern than to just continue issuing multicam
