What is cadpat?

CADPAT, which stands for Canadian Disruptive Pattern, is a family of military camouflage patterns developed by the Canadian military in the early 2000s. The pattern was designed to provide effective camouflage in a variety of environments, including woodland, arid, and urban settings.

The CADPAT pattern consists of small pixelated squares in shades of green, brown, and black, which help break up the outline of a soldier and blend in with the surrounding environment. The pattern has been widely adopted by the Canadian Armed Forces and has also been used by other countries, including the United States and United Kingdom.

CADPAT is considered to be highly effective at providing camouflage and concealment for military personnel in a range of environments. The pattern has also been adapted for use on equipment, vehicles, and other gear to provide consistent camouflage across all elements of a military operation.
