Curious.
If the intent is to use false markings to confuse the other team, been done before... it only took the Luftwaffe around a day to have invasion markings on aircraft attempting to drop bombs on the Normandy fleet. But the markings need to be visible to the other team to be confusing. Putting the markings on the rear end is great if you reverse into a firefight... Now the Gang that Couldn't Shoot Straight, on recent performance are quite likely to add markings in locations to confuse their own side. Given the facts, it would appear that the video is taken in the afternoon, and is of Russian forces having another "normal" day in the hood. If the time of the photos was known...
