The details of why your conclusion - although on the surface seems right - is wrong are classified. How convenient.

The modern paint job probably wont have any meaningful effect...![](http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_FVeEhhTjSXI/TRwi-CeOp-I/AAAAAAAAAy0/nSzGNQwEqiM/s400/100731-N-6854D-100-USS%2BFreedom%2B%2528LCS%2B1%2529.jpg)

The real reason for this paint job-note the unattractive exhaust stains in the non-camouflaged image and compare this to where the darkest patches happen to be in camouflaged image.
If the camouflage was truly effective, all out surface ships would be painted in the same pattern.
