#8 The IDF favors a weird greenish color. It's a matter of depth and seawater transparency.

#10 The USAF and the USAAF in WWII experimented with various pastel shades for airplanes, but no self-respecting ascot-wearing aviator would ever think to strap on a pink P-38. Lockheed Martin painted the Have Blue (F-117 demostrators) various shades of pink and light blue also, all in attempts to minimize visual detection.
