Oops, actually, "against AN open terrain" would be better.

best camouflaged
It seems likely that the context would allow you to turn it inside out, so this could be an option.
"best camouflaged in open terrain"
"most effectively camouflaged in open terrain"
"most effectively camouflageable in open terrain"
"best camouflaged in open terrain"
"most effectively camouflaged in open terrain"
"most effectively camouflageable in open terrain"
Note from asker:
| Good suggestion. Very different from the first one. Thank you Rachel. |

Thanks, Misha. About "camouflageable," sure. I only thought there needed to be options, in case the text implied that these obstacles had to be set up, acted upon, in order to obtain this quality. But, also, I don't find it hard to pronounce.
