Arid and Tropic are likely from Crye's submission to the US Army's (now-stalled, if not dead) Phase IV camo improvement solicitation, which called for a family of patterns to replace UCP. The idea was that a transitional pattern would become the Army's primary and PPE pattern, with the others issued as needed.
