Surely camo like that on a jet is just unnecessary.

Because they use a special paint instead, which reduces the radar cross section

Anyway, who would go with "cool" camo over camo that will actually help you blend in...
that camo would make it very difficult to determine what direction the ship is facing, and make it hard to take shots at long range, it is effective, but useless against radar.firebolt5 wrote:

Given radar didnt really come into play until WW2, makes perfect sense. The whole point was so U-Boats had trouble determining which way the ship was facing/heading, therefore making it alot harder to hit with torpodeos.S.Lythberg wrote:
