After two years of development of digital camouflage pattern application for military aircraft HyperStealth Biotechnology Corp\ is now ready to apply the KA2 camouflage scheme on an F-16 fighter. According to HyperStealth’s President and CEO, Guy Cramer, the application will be painted on the Royal Jordanian Air Force F-16 fighters, following successful testing on Blackhawk helicopters. The test will be conducted as part of a comprehensive camouflage program commissioned by His Majesty, King Abdullah II of Jordan (shown on the right, wearing the new uniform in the picture below).

Under this program, advanced digital KA2 camouflage patterns were developed for the Jordan Armed Forces, Police, Customs and Counter Terrorism Battalion. The KA2 camouflage pattern uses digital fractal patterns which were proven to be more difficult to detect than traditional (analog) camouflage patterns. KA2 design are already used with combat uniform issued to Jordanian troops (shown below). Similar patterns were also tested on weapons, complementing a complete set of urban camouflage suit. Other tests were carried out with vehicle camouflage, using vehicle wrap technology developed by 3M Commercial Graphics division. Similar materials were used to wrap UH-60 Blackhawk helicopters. The complex KA2 pattern is now considered for the F-16 fighter making the Kingdom of Jordan the first in the world to use this advanced visual mitigation method.

Yeah i heard about it couple of months ago!!! It can come handy in a dog fight situation, but in BVR fight it has no use.

This photo is looking fake. but if its real,why didn't they paint the fuel tanks and all missiles/bombs?
The US Army uses such a design to camo.. in their combat exercises, now they are using it on aircraft, thats cool. :thumbsup: I wonder if this camo pattern could used to enhance the survivability of a stationary aircraft on the ground.

We should have these on pakistani F-16s also, I like them too and even if they are parked in the open it will be difficult to be spotted if caught in the open.

I think this kind of camoflague is suitable for AK also whats your opinion, i never liked the colour scheme of AK.

The camoflague of F-16 only matches with the camoflague of a Jordanian Army. Pakistani F-16s has the best camoflague, it suits the air space of Pakistan very well.
