But yeah, it doesn’t work for camo at sea when everyone in anything bigger than 20 feet has radar.

Radar tells you that there is a ship there, not who it is. SeaHippies are known for black ships. So if you make the ship hard to ID the guys they are hunting may not react soon enough to break up the SeaHippies attack.

True, but they have a 200’ship and the tuna guys aren’t much bigger than about 110, the signature is pretty easy to pick out.

Radar pretty much negated any benefit of the razzle dazzle paint scheme, and that’s why the US and all allied vessels went monochromatic.
