THE PATTERN:

One of the more interesting camouflage designs to come out of the 1970s period in Africa was the "leopard spot" design.

Although also produced for Chad and Libya, Zaire had its own version that incorporated more browns and had an overall darker composition. This camouflage design has been particularly associated with the Kamanyola Division (Mobutu Sese Seko’s personal elite unit), and with various foreign units who went through commando training at the Centre d'Entrainement Commando at Kota Koli.

Original versions of the design were reputedly produced in Belgium, but later uniforms were most certainly imported from Asian factories. This design would continue to be worn sporadically well into the 1990s.
