Repaint / reprint when deployment orders are received? How durable is the print, though? The current paint used on most vehicles is incredible stuff. You can't even mar it with a super-high pressure water cannon.
As for uniforms; I'm not sure any military regular with clout would be willing to do something as practical as custom uniforms based on deployment environment. Too much change, too much innovation.

Well, I wasn't being entirely serious - but did visit a place where they were printing cloth for use in furniture so it looked pretty heavyweight material.
