Swedish vessel HSwMS Gävle.
Swedish vessel HSwMS Sturkö.
Swedish vessel HSwMS Visby.
Norwegian patrol boat. this is more camouflage in the traditional variety than dazzle?
American LCS [Littoral Combat Ship] of the Freedom class.
Dazzle as a measure designed to confuse the optical range-finders of enemy combat surface vessels during the Great War [WW1]. Confuse even more so the optical range-finders of submarines.
Long-range missiles with radar, infra-red and GPS guidance as might be the dominant force in modern naval warfare makes dazzle a totally ineffective defensive measure. Dazzle however looks "cool"?
