For the ground and specialized troops of the Turkish Navy:

The Marines used their own orange/brown tonned camouflage uniforms between 1980s to late of 1990s at the same time of early version of 4 coloured squash leaf patterns. Later the 2000 they full gone to the 3 coloured and horizontal patterned Turkish ERDL versions became popular in different units of amed forces.

Later the 2008 they are full gone to the new standard service camo of the Army with the different cutting, like the US BDU style in traditional collar design...

SAT/SAS troops are used US M81 and Turkish version of US M81 woodland known as "Anatolian Woodland" from the 80s until the 2013. Also the Marine orange ERDL model in limited numbers. They are still using old Woodland and ERDL versions as the training camo BTW. Later the 2013 SAS passed to new standard service camo of the amy in full US BDU design. And SAT passed Turkish made modelis of the MultiCam pattern as operational camo,They are also using the BDU version the new standard service camo as barrack dress...

Probably the highly dirtied ones of the new boots produced by Army 1st Maintenance Base & YDS planned to be new service boots. We can see them in use of different kind of units like the Commando Brigades and Gendarmerie SF units but not in standart level yet...

Is this sniper rifle KNT-308 ?

Nope, Its British Accuracy International L115A3 AWMF in .338 Lapua Magnum caliber, pretty common in Land Forces and Gendarmerie troops...

KNT tested in Army's Tuzla sniper school for a long time ago (prob in 2008 or 2009 ı didn't remember time fluently) but just it. None of our units using it...

From what i know you managed to shoot some in Cyprus sniper training school right? how does it match up against the British Accuracy International L115?

Nope, ı did not use it, just meet a Turkish Cypriot handful engineer and designer of Kalekalıp KNT series who is a close friend of designer the orijinal British Accuracy International rifles...

BTW we can't compare the L115 and KNT 308. Because they even don't use the same ammunition. L115 uses the .338 Lapua Magnum known as the 8.6x70mm which is particularly designed for bolt-action sniper rifles with the specialized ballistic features and log-range capabilities. So it's much more supperior than .308 Win Mag (7.62x51mm) which is both used by JNG and KNT rifles...

Also the current longest recorded sniper kill done by a British sniper named Craig Harrison who was using L115 in .338 LM. He hit and killed his target from 2.475 m distance in Afghanistan. With the .308, (even specialized for sniper/DMR usage) you can only a target a little bit more than 1.000 m if yo are an handy sniper...

It's probably going to be new standard service uniform for the armed forces, different banches of troops already using it as standard service camo too...

Would Be Great if we start using BDU's for the entire Armed Force Personals.

Btw, Do we have any TRUSPECS that are being used? I know our Special Forces uses.
