Flecktarn is a family of three-, four-, five- or six-color disruptive camouflage patterns, the most common being the five-color pattern which is the woodland version, consisting of dark green, grey-green, red brown, and black over a light green or tan base depending on the manufacturer. The original German five-color pattern was designed for use in European temperate woodland terrain. A three-color variation called Wüstentarn is often mistakenly called Tropentarn by non-German speakers, and is instead a 3 color pattern used by the Bundeswehr in arid and desert environments and also printed on Tropentarn fabric which is intended for arid and desert conditions.
