Обсуждалось уже неоднократно, не хочу заново городить, но замечу что в отличии от многих стран в том числе сша, в СССР да и в РФ широкий диапазон местности где 1 универсальный камуфляж не подходит.
а вот туманы, атмосфера, освещение,да и тот факт, что серый суть смешение в равных пропорциях красного зеленого и голубого- все это везде одинаковое:
ЦитатаStill, a light grey color was found to be about as effective. Throughout the 60s and 70s, more and more military aircraft were painted in what is now called low-visibility grey. This color is similar to that of a cloudy sky, or of the haze that often covers distant objects.
На земле многие объекты в дымке, серый прекрасно с ней сливается- то же и в атмосфере.
кстати интересный пассаж про историю черного окраса F-117, не встречал раньше (но , признаться, и не интересовался).
Оказывается,в черный его покрасили вовсе не для того, чтобы его хуже было видно ночью- исследования показывают, что черный самолет в небе будет виден гораздо лучше серого.
Однако у командования были опасения, что в случае использования F-117 в дневных операциях он попросту не выживет. И потому было принято решение сделать его полностью черным-чтобы не возникало и мысли о его дневном применении)

How the F-117 came to be painted black is an interesting story. Even at night, black is not as good as dark grey for blending into the background. Stars and the moon provide some light, and a shadow against them is noticeable. In areas with more light pollution, where stars are hard to see and moonlight does not add much to ambient illumination, a black shape moving through the sky is also noticeable. The air illuminated at night over cities (especially when cloudy) would also make a black aircraft stick out like a sore thumb, while a grey aircraft would blend into the clouds. For non-light-polluted areas where the stars can be seen at night, an almost-white color might actually be least visible. When the F-117 was being test-flown, Lockheed engineers researched all this, and presented a report to the US Air Force suggesting that their new stealthy fighter-bomber be painted the standard low-visibility grey with a very light grey belly. The commanders in charge of the F-117 program, however, thought that the F-117 could never survive daytime operations, and decided that painting them black would prevent mission planners from ever deploying the F-117 outside the cover of night. So it was painted black not for stealth, but so that the aircraft would not be flown through undue risk. However, in late 2003, some F-117s were finally painted in low-visibility grey, and (just as the commanders feared) were evaluated for daytime operations.
