Edit: could it possibly be an old picture of when the US had tank companies in Germany? The camo scheme looks really similar to what I've Leopards 2A5s use.  

The_Chieftain:   It was more a satirical comment. Pretty much the vast majority of the US Army's equipment is painted desert sand. Strykers are some of the few exceptions. That convoy that went from Lithuania through a bunch of countries to Germany? See the colour of the accompanying HMMWVs and LMTVs? The tanks and Bradleys sent to Latvia late last year? http://archive.armytimes.com/article/20141016/NEWS08/310160047/U-S-soldiers-tanks-train-Eastern-Europe-show-Russia-NATO-will-hold-line Yep, desert yellow. They're they're long enough that it's snowing heavily, desert yellow. http://newsinfo.inqu...ope-general The Bradley training in Hungary with BTR-80s I posted earlier, desert yellow. Tanks return to become pre-positioned equipment in Germany.. guess what colour is being offloaded? http://www.military.com/daily-news/2014/02/03/american-tanks-return-to-europe-after-brief-leave.html Yep, desert yellow.   Plus, we're not allowed to use real foliage for concealment in training exercises (annoys environmentalists when we break off tree branches, apparently), I honestly think the US military has decided to hell with visual camo.
