Guest Coalbucket PI Posted May 31, 2011 Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 Apparently in World War I someone decided that boat camouflage wasn't working because none of them were good in all weather conditions, and so this 'dazzle' paintjob was invented. It doesn't make it less visible, but makes it hard to tell what sort of boat it is, how fast it's going and in which direction. Snazzy stuff I'm sure you'll agree. A bunch of photos here http://twistedsifter.com/2010/02/razzle-dazzle-camouflage/ Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dazzle_camouflage also while I'm on the subject I think digital camouflage is pretty IDM too Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/66524-dazzle-camoflage/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

joshuatxuk Posted May 31, 2011 Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 Yeah, I was a big aircraft and military equipment dork as a little kid, and dazzle camouflage always threw me off. Digital can be pretty cool too, but it's effectiveness varies: Some planes in dazzle and digital...

FUCK That's the worst thing i've ever eaten. The flesh simply doesn't cleave to the bones. Battery ferming. And then, foie gras is banned from NY state, because it's considered as ill-treat. IT'S NOT. KFC is tourist ill-treat. YOU POISONERS! Two hours after being to KFC, i stopped in a amsih little town barf all that KFC shit out. Nice work!

jules Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 I think it's because they are expecting the enemy to have our old technology that we sold them including digital binoculars that pixelate when zooming or moving making our guys invisible and thus invincible. i shudder to think where the u.s. would be right now without digital camo.

Candiru Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 If I saw one of those boats coming my way, I'd get excited thinking that some cool dudes and switched on chicks are rescuing me from military service to go AWOL and get crunk. But then it'd shoot like 3 missiles at my face. So in a way, it's pretty effective.

Most forms beyond the US army pattern seem to be faring well, especially seeing as deployed troops are switching to multicam. Speaking of binocular techology, every hear of this?
