  • description: We used to have such cool aircraft paint jobs and liveries; now they're reserved for performance aircraft like the Blue Angels and aggressor squadrons. What happened to the good 'ol days of camo F-4 Phantoms and bare aluminum streaking across the sky? Why is everything so grey? In the full video, we dig into the history of camouflage, attempt to pronounce some French words and absolutely nail it, and overall tell a really interesting story of how aircraft evolved to use grey. Full video: https://youtu.be/BrlxCzk-AS4 Task & Purpose is a military news and culture-oriented channel. We want to foster discussion about the defense industry.
