So you're basically saying that making hangers cammo has no use whatsoever? Maybe you haven't noticed but those hangers are pretty small and could easily be missed in favour of the larger hangers around the airfield in any attack, making them cammo increases that likelihood. So that cammo paint on the hanger's front is for a "cooling effect" as well? :rolleyes:
Any camouflage is better than none, any military officer will tell you that.
Asian-observer is right regarding that, Also the tactic does the dual role..

But it don't camo from satalites and recon drones..

Those are standard-sized hangars (notice the size of the pickup truck and cars parked near the entrance). Also notice the wings of the UAV inside that hangar (UAVs have longer than usual wings for high altitude and endurance flight, that BZK-005 seems to be no different) yet it fits inside the hangar. So that hangar is relatively large. It'll be very hard to cammo it inside an air base as it will have a predictable silhouette or terrain features when viewed from the top.

If the grass is there really to intentionally hide that hangar (for secret UAVs) then it would be more effective to place them far from military air bases or airports. Maybe if you place those hangars beside a highway in the countryside (in grassy fields) then plant some trees on top of them and in between, it might be missed out by the constantly prying eyes of military satellites.

That cammo paint on the hangar doors are also useless if the intention is to hide that hangar. That cammo paint scheme is there most probably as a standard military facility paint scheme.
