Our pilots were known to wear tiger camouflage flight suits on occasion over Vietnam. The only one I saw since then that was other than the standard green-gray was an orange one worn by a Navy LT that had been a test pilot back in the Seventies (He was a great guy, and ended up at some point in his Naval career being the all-time leader in carrier traps, though I suppose has since been surpassed...)

Yes, he’s wearing the cold weather jacket.

The camo is their new EMR pattern that was developed in 2008.
