Thou bullets may just make a tiny little hole and nothing more
Maybe there's something inside it that stops bullets?

Aaah, Masaq posted the pictures I'm thinking of. Dazzle pattern as used by the Royal Navy in World War 2 to break up the linear image of a ship. Even if you can see the ship it's difficult to get an idea of how long it is, which way it's facing etcetera.

WRT bullets piercing the fabric, I'm pretty sure they'd have thought of that, and in the article is does explain it's been tested under various conditions and fired upon.

I'm a fan of the disruption pattern idea. It would offer slightly better concealment opportunities.

Other than that, it looks like someone has strapped a few mattresses to a vehicle.

The colours used also made me think that they might be trying to make it fashionable by using Burberry-ish colours.
