British military personnel in Afghanistan have started wearing uniforms bearing the first new camouflage design in over 40 years. The new Multi-Terrain Pattern (MTP) camouflage was unveiled in December last year and began to be worn by soldiers in Afghanistan in April 2010. It will be issued to all military personnel by 2012. The camouflage is intended to help British troops blend into Afghanistan's varied terrain.
