71chally Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Looks like black preservative (Spraylat?) to me, and in that excellent link above you can see it being removed from an A-6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 I had a relative in the US Navy in a carrier that delivered aircraft to japan during the Korean war. I have photos he took of them in my files. I never thought about that when looking at the Black F-4 Phantom, it never crossed my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
