I read somewhere about the Vulcan on exercise in the USA or Canada, they had a light underside and although the upper Camo worked well at low level, when in a sharp bank the underside was exposed resulting in it being seen from miles away, therefore they applied a wrap around scheme in the field so to speak.. It still didn't get around the fact that the damn thing cast a visible shadow that could be seen for miles.
