This rare Iraqi Federal Police camo uniform is worn by both officers and enlisted personnel. Although it is a dress style uniform, it has been observed to be commonly worn in combat. The one above has the newer style Federal Police patches. The camouflage pattern is also unique as it looks to be made from ripstop, but it actually imitates its look. This style was first seen during the War on ISIS.

Here's one heavily used uniform that was definitely worn in the field. It is a Federal Police worn digital camouflage uniform with 2 pleated front pockets on the uniform. The camo pattern also has a flag incorporated in it, imitating the early US made Iraqi police uniforms. The jacket is faded, especially on the top and the sleeves. Evidence of a plate carrier worn over the uniform protected the lower half of the uniform jacket from the sun. The pants have field repairs on all the pockets which strengthened the stitching, and the buttons on the jacket have been re sewn multiple times.
