I don't understand any of this, but thats okay...
the plane does look interesting with the night time paint scheme.
I've always been fascinated by the use of black paint on many aircraft
as a camo colour.
Obviously it works at night, but I think it could work in other weather conditions.

Interesting that I was just reading up on WW2 Spitfire colours and a common
underside colour was ...pink.
I didn't know this.
But apparently it has something to do with the colour transition across the horizon
...or something like that... that makes the pink blend in better than gray or blue.
