(December 16, 2013)
ADS Inc. and US4CES designer Guy Cramer, have decided to use
Hyperstealth's print on demand process developed by Cramer, President/CEO of
Hyperstealth to bring 45 new US4CES patterns in two new series: 15 US4CES
Bravo Series patterns and 30 US4CES Charlie Series patterns to the
commercial market and for printed camouflage trial material to foreign
countries outside of the U.S. looking for a new advanced camouflage uniform.

The US4CES Alpha family of camouflage, a finalist in the U.S.
Army Phase IV Camouflage Improvement Effort, are still not available
commercially, awaiting an official decision by the U.S. Military on Phase IV
and on the the new U.S. military rule imposed by congress to reduce their
current 10 camouflage patterns to a common family of 2 or 3 colorations of
the same pattern for all branches for potential implementation by 2018.
What's the difference between Alpha and Bravo? The first
difference is in the color layering, reversing the order of lightest to
darkest colors (the patterns are identical other than the color order).
The second difference is that we did not just reproduce the
four colorations in the Alpha Series which can be found in the first four
Bravo patterns but we added 11 more color schemes to provide a wider
selection to provide greater focus on specific environments around the
world.
The Third difference is that we do not print with NIR (Near
Infrared) inks for the commercial market, we can print with NIR inks for
approved Law Enforcement agencies and approved Military customers. US4CES
Delta series is currently in final trials with a very important country and
is not available commercially.

pattern printed on the same fabric offered
The first difference between US4CES Delta and Charlie is in
the color layering, reversing the order of lightest to darkest colors.
The second difference is that we did not limit the color
palette to only four colors for the US4CES Charlie Series as we needed to
for US4CES Delta. While rotary or screen printing is often limited to 8 or
fewer colors, with textile inkjet printing we can use the whole color
palette of 16.3 million colors at no difference in cost. For large orders,
(factory runs) the Charlie patterns can be reduced to 8 colors or less with
little change in overall look.
The third difference is that we did not just reproduce
something close to the four colorations in the US4CES Delta Series which can
be found in the first four Charlie patterns but we added 26 more color
schemes to provide a wider selection to provide greater focus on specific
environments around the world.
The fourth difference is the same as US4CES Bravo; we do not
print with NIR (Near Infrared) inks for the commercial market. Large factory
runs of US4CES Bravo and US4CES Charlie patterns with or without NIR (Near
Infrared) inks are available on large orders to approved customers.
US4CES Bravo and Charlie Series Fabric (5 yard minimums)
available to order now - Note commercial printing for these orders will be
delayed until the end of January due all available material being used for
two recent orders for 1,750 yards of Printed Deceptex Fabric.
