Australian SASR Series 2 DPDU Set

The Australian Army SASR DPDU (Disruptive Pattern Desert Uniform) Series 2 second pattern trial set, consisting of shirt and pants, is associated with early Australian deployments to Afghanistan, particularly worn by elements of the Special Air Service Regiment and supporting troops. This trial pattern represents a transitional phase in Australian desert camouflage development, featuring refinements over earlier DPDU designs in both colour palette and cut for improved effectiveness in arid environments. Due to their short production run and direct link to early Afghanistan operations, Series 2 trial DPDU sets are considered relatively scarce and are sought after by collectors of modern Australian militaria.
