The exact same concept was used during WWI for ship camouflage. Confuse the eye of the predator humans have eyes of predators being in the front of our heads with binocular vision just like every other predator.

I have often thought I might enjoy World of Warships...I even downloaded it once, but...just never seem to find the time!

Glad you enjoyed it!

IIRC, that is the Type 32 frigate...I didn’t find it to be an attractive design physically, but...a little change in the paint job sure made it look more fierce...:)

Doesn’t look like blending with the local environment....looks pretty darn bold to me.
