Tiger Stripe

Name	Description	Optimal Use	Location Found
Tiger Stripe	Striped camo pattern resembling a tiger’s coat. Effective in wooded and grassy areas as well as against soil.	Grassy areas and forests and swamps	In inventory from start.

This is a started camo and its the one that lasts the longest in early game – Dremuchij, Dolivodno and Rassvet areas get mileage out of it.

---

Leaf

Choco Chip

Name	Description	Optimal Use	Location Found
Choco Chip	Camo pattern designed to provide concealment in the desert. Naked for its resemblance to a chocolate chip cookie. Effective in desert and mountain environments.	Deserts, Mountains and rocky surfaces	Bolshaya Past South or Graniny Gorky Lab

The Choco Chip camo is one of those hidden goodies you can snag while sneaking around Bolshaya Past South. To grab it, start by slipping under the fence gap on the right-hand side, then work your way left across the area.

Move slow here—there are Claymores scattered around. Eventually, you’ll come across a tree you can climb. Walk out to the end of that branch, drop down, and you’ll land on the other side of the fence.

From there, stick to the right. You’ll run into a little pool of water with a path running alongside it. Follow that path and you’ll discover the Splitter Uniform. Look ahead and you’ll also spot a Kerotan Frog sitting at the base of the trees.

Before you move on, deal with the guard stationed on the left. Once he’s out of the picture, head toward the nearby fence gap he was covering. Pass through, and check the hollow tree stump near the area’s edge—you’ll find the Choco Chip camo tucked inside.

And if you somehow miss it here? Don’t worry—you can also snag another one on the second-floor balcony of the Graniny Gorky Lab.

This one is good for Deserts, mountains and rocky areas in general.

Walk out to the end of that branch, drop down, and you’ll land on the other side of the fence. From there, stick to the right. You’ll run into a little pool of water with a path running alongside it. Follow that path and you’ll discover the Splitter Uniform.

Name	Description	Optimal Use	Location Found
Raindrop	Camo pattern used extensively in Eastern Europe. Effective in the rain.	During rain	Dolinovodno

You’ll cross the famous bridge in Dolinovodno twice in MGS Delta, but the Raindrop camo only becomes available during your second trip through the area.

Start in the Dolinovodno area and deal with the guard by shooting down the hornet’s nest—the swarm will chase him off for you. Once you’re across, hang a left and follow the narrow trail that winds down underneath. The ledge is tight, so press yourself against the wall to avoid falling. Inside, you’ll find the Raindrop camo.

Good for use in the rain. I don’t remember it raining even once.

You will find the Snow camo in the Peschera Cave. When you make it to the Peschera Cave, stick to the path on the right. It’ll lead you into a chamber where a skeleton is sprawled out on the ground next to an M37 shotgun. Grab the weapon, then drop down into prone position—you’ll notice a small crawlspace hidden just behind the skeleton. Squeeze through the opening and you’ll come out in another cavern. Inside is the Snow camo.

This camo is great for the final boss fight in the game.

---

Animals

Name	Description	Optimal Use	Location Found
Animals	An animal skin camo uniform. Wearing it removes any hand shake when readying weapons.	Deserts, rocky areas.	Chyornaya Peschera Cave Branch

Every boss in MGS Delta has a special reward if you take them down without lethal weapons. You should already have the Mk22 tranquilizer pistol in your gear—equip it when the fight starts and use it to put Ocelot to sleep instead of finishing him with live rounds. You’ll automatically get access to it when you move on to the next zone, the Chyornaya Peschera Branch.

This is one of the first camouflages you will get with an effect that activates when the camo is worn.

Keep up the pressure until The Pain’s stamina is gone, and he’ll drop the Hornet Stripe camo once the battle ends. You’ll find it sitting on one of the small islands in the middle of the cave’s lake. To get there, head toward the exit door and take the path on the right. Follow it all the way to the end, then leap across to the nearby island.

This camo is good for desert and rocky areas. It also deters bugs like leeches and spiders, and also allows you to harness the power of hornets.

---

Spider

Name	Description	Optimal Use	Location Found
Spider	The Fear’s camo uniform. Gives wearer stealth capability at the cost of stamina.	During Alert phases	Graniny Gorky South

You have to earn it by holding The End up at least three times during your fight. This involves sneaking up on him so quietly that he does not hear you and pulling a gun on him before he notices you. After you have successfully held him up, point the gun at his head or crotch to get him to wiggle.

The Moss camo is easily one of the most useful outfits in the entire game. It blends perfectly into forest and jungle environments, giving you an outstanding camo index—and if you pair it with the Woodland face paint, you can even hit a full 100% camo rating. On top of that, it comes with a unique bonus: while wearing it, Snake can actually regain stamina in sunlight through photosynthesis.
