That's the thing they are ssg. We just don't know why they're wearing that uniform.
I have seen no proof indicating they are SSG. They might be Brit Pakistani for all I know.

They look Pak... The uniform/Beret is SSG .. No brit or arab mil wears Maroon berets... and thats not the only pic.. u will find em wearin the camo jackets over woodland etc.. so Yes they are SSG but we are not sure if thats some new camo or if they are on trainin .. which still doesnt explain why... because even on training/ex the troops wear their own camo/uniform and not the host military's.

Different (slightly) stock. Also different rails. You have a hard time with id'ing the type of vests. IDEAS 2016 did NOT have SPC or modular plate carriers. they were just 90s/early 2000s style vests with added molle webbing. nor does pak have RRVs (rhodesian recon vests). The vests that you think are bulletproof vests aren't even bulletproof vests. Just tactical vests. Neither is the russian vest a modular plate carrier.
These pictures show a newer vest (see the detachable plate insert pouch and a plastic-like shoulder harness). Kudos if Pak finally graduated to a newer vest instead of making excuses for the old type of vests and hyping them up as (modern) bulletproof vests. Training abroad usually involves wearing a different combat suit and borrowing equipment but not the hats. My guess is that these are hand-me downs or individual purchases IF these pictures are from Pakistan.
NONE of the Pak camos are remotely like ACU. SPD does use marpat, so do a bunch of militias in the syria and iraq (amongst others).
See THIS for a vest of the same camo pattern as the uniforms in the mentioned pics. The guy on the right. mish-mash of vests and camo. points to individual/private purchase - allowed in sf groups.

from an Indian documentary; it shows a poster of a Pakistani Sindh Ranger as a target; how pathetic.

My guess is these are either our guys during training in UK. See in first pic the 2 guys are wearing brown shoes, UK army guys wear such brown colored shoes.

Yes could but there are chances that we have exactly copied there camouflage because we are doing it. Our Air Force one is also a copy as well as our Nuclear Security Guys they also wear copy of a uniform worn by certain section of USA Armed Forces.
