The colors of the newly issued dress and service uniform for the PLA Rocket Force are more service specific. Dark green is the color for the main Rocket Force weaponry and equipment, with green as the classical color of the Chinese military uniform, and Khaki is the color of the missile ignition flame, which is also the classical color for international military uniforms, said Wu Qian.

Besides, the color mix is more balanced and innovative. The old rocket force uniform, which is the same as the army uniform, that are still in storage will be issued to the PLA Army to avoid waste, Wu Qian added.
