US Air Superiority Grey

Simple question - was US Air Superiority Grey ever gloss or was it always matt?

According to IPMS Stockholm, Air Defense Command Gray is FS 36473.  Now, that being said, having talked to Six crewchiefs and mechanics whilst a member of the 177FW, the Delta Dart had a smooth, slippery paint job, so I'd probably lean towards FS 26473 or even 16473


Here, you can see the US AIR FORCE reflecting off the wing.

Thanks, Scooter.  That clears that problem up!

Yep, 16473, the (1) denoting gloss.
