Disruptive Pattern Material (DPM) is the commonly used name of a camouflage pattern used by British forces as well many other armies worldwide, particularly in former British colonies. The main variants of DPM are a four-colour woodland pattern, and desert patterns in two, three or four colours. DPM has also been produced in black/white/grey, in various blue tones and even in purples (this last for the Swazi Royal Guard). DPM is currently being phased out in British military service, being superseded by Multi-Terrain Pattern.[citation needed]
