Luke changes F-16 paint scheme to single color

Senior Airman Nicolas Pages and Airman 1st Class Elijah Carpenter, 56th Equipment Maintenance Squadron aircraft structural maintenance journeymen, mask off the tail of an F-16C Fighting Falcon, preparing it to be primed, June 22, 2020, at Luke Air Force Base, Ariz. In preparation to paint an F-16, Airmen tape and mask parts of the aircraft that are not going to be painted or sanded. For the first time at Luke, AMS Airmen painted an F-16 one solid medium-gray color versus the traditional dark gray on top and light on bottom in an action that will save the Air Force time and money.
