Donald Trump’s image of a possible new U.S. Space Force uniform quickly drew comparisons online to the uniforms of Nazi SS forces.

The U.S. president posted the AI-generated image on Truth Social on Sunday. The proposed outfit is black and includes a belt, knee-high boots, and a cap, details that many users cited when making the comparison.

Trump said the design was inspired by the “discipline and functionality” of the uniform in the film “Starship Troopers.” The outfit also reminded some viewers of Darth Vader’s costume in the “Star Wars” series.

It is not clear whether Trump’s image shows the final Space Force uniform or merely a proposal from the Republican leader.
