-* The Hungarian Ministry of Defense began looking for a replacement for the aging M1990 four-color camouflage pattern around 2012. A growing international popularity of [[Multicam]] prompted the decision to adopt it on a limited basis by the HDF Special Forces, and would ultimately influence the project for the new Hungarian camouflage design. The M2015 design is six-color pattern, incorporating reddish-brown, light tan, olive green, moss green, light brown, and sand-colors, although the specific shapes are unique and unrelated to any other commercial or military camouflage (including Multicam). The initial order was made with the TenCate company, which produced a limited run of fire-retardant fabric from which the first production run of military uniforms were manufactured. Due to the high cost of producing fire-retardant fabrics, however, the MOD decided the distribution of these uniforms would be limited to operational uses, while the everyday working uniform of the regular soldier would be made using a poly/cotton fabric blend. A gradual system of replacement proceded, eventually leaving the M90 camouflage pattern uniform in use only with Reserve Security Guard units at certain military installations. It is worth noting that subsequent printings of the M2015 camouflage pattern include a small silhouette of the outline of Hungary.

-* Scheduled for official adoption by the Hungarian Defense Force starting in 2016, a national variation of [[Multicam]] will gradually replace the M1990 four-color pattern over the coming next few years. A six-color design, incorporating reddish-brown, light tan, olive green, moss green, light brown, and sand-colors, the specific shapes appear to be a unique design and unrelated to any other commercial or military design. Some circles are referring to this design as "HunCam" but it is likely this is only a nickname.

-* A third "leaf" pattern, adopted in the late 1960s, saw very limited use on an experimental paratrooper uniform. The same pattern, printed on different types of material (thus having a different appearance), was also used on the 67M ''összfegyvernemi védőkészlet'' and ''Könnyű gázvédőruha'' (1967 pattern "all arms" gas protection suit and light gas protective suit), as well as on vehicle tarpaulins

		+	* Certain Opposing Force (OPFOR) units of the Hungarian Army have appeared in public photos wearing a the ATACS AU (Arid-Urban) camouflage design circa 2019-20. Not officially adopted by the HAF, it is unknown whether its use was simply for a single series of exercises, or will see continued use in the future.
