German Bundeswehr Flecktarn Helmet Cover
Fleck my Ride!
While this bad boy of a cover was made to fit over the standard Bundeswehr (German Armed Forces) standard issue helmet, the Gefechtshelm M92 (Schuberth), you can rest assured it will also fit over PASGT style helmets. Here at Misty Mountain Labs, we tested and currently run a LWH (Light Weight Helmet- PASGT derivative). The iconic camouflage has only recently begun phasing out in the German Armed Forces, and has served them for a good deal of time, much as it has been a veteran in the hearts of surplus collectors and survivalists. It’s a classic pattern, which can be combined with classic or more modern style Flecktarn kits, but also just works as a far more interesting helmet cover than standard GWOT (Global War on Terror) desert patterns. Make sure to get one today, to add a little spice onto your standard helmet setup!
Flecktarn
In 1976, the Bundeswehr in Germany developed a number of prototype camouflage patterns, to be prototyped as replacements for the solid olive-gray "moleskin" combat uniform. At least four distinct camouflage patterns were tested during Bundeswehr Truppenversuch 76 ("Bundeswehr Troop Trial 76"). Flecktarn ultimately emerged victorious above all other competition in the trials, becoming the staple of the German Army till 2022, facing being phased out by “Multitarn.” However, as early as World War Two, the German Wehrmacht experimented with similar camouflage designs, and there is evidence that similar patterns such as Platanenmuster may have served as the basis for inspiration for Flecktarn.

Field Notes/Misty Supply Musings/Potential Uses/Trivia
The Germans in their infinite wisdom have switched from surplusing their Flecktarn to burning it all… pain… anyhow, if there's ever been a time to acquire a Flecktarn time it's now, the window is closing, albeit slowly…
