New "Lynx" camouflage for the Polish Army. Will replace the "Panther" pattern

"Lynx" camouflage - experience of Special Forces

The key novelty is the "Ryś" camouflage, developed in close cooperation with Special Forces soldiers. It was their experience from real combat operations and foreign missions that was the foundation for creating a pattern that is intended to provide even better camouflage and comfort of use in various field conditions.

"The new camouflage for soldiers of the Polish Army is a unique arrangement of irregular spots in 5 colors. The spots, thanks to their different sizes, imitate the colors and shadows of natural terrain unevenness, grass, bushes and forest cover typical of Poland. They perfectly camouflage the soldier both in the forest and in built-up areas," says the Ministry of National Defense in an entry on the X portal.

The end of "Panther" - the beginning of a new chapter

The existing "Panther" design was a symbol of the Polish army for years, but - as the military emphasizes - it required modernization to meet modern requirements.

As announced by the Ministry of National Defense, the replacement of uniforms will be a gradual process and will cover all types of the Polish Armed Forces. At first, the new uniforms will go to selected units, and eventually they will replace all existing designs.
