About a half-hour's fiddling -- only the major surfaces done, no shading, no fancy work with the panel lines, only basic markings, no weathering -- I came up with this:

You will notice that there are two patches on the engine nacelles that take their texture from the wing bitmap, not the engine nacelle bitmap; this will make ensuring texture lineup annoying. And the fact that both wings use the same texture means that the camouflage is inherently symmetrical on the wings. Also, there doesn't seem to be any good way to replace the normal exhaust headers with the flash hider tubes that ducted the exhaust over the upper wing surfaces. But a generally useful skin can be made.
