Exactly. From <http://www.af.mil/photos/index.asp?galleryID=27>

A Nighthawk in Raptor's clothing
HOLLOMAN AIR FORCE BASE, N.M. -- An F-117 Nighthawk sits in its
hangar after being repainted. The aircraft, owned by the 53rd
Test and Evaluation Group's Detachment 1 here, was repainted gray
as part of a test to determine whether the F-117 can have a role
in daytime combat operations. Normally painted black, the stealth
fighters are used for night missions. (U.S. Air Force photo by
Airman 1st Class Vanessa LaBoy)

F-117 FSD-3 with underbelly US flag scheme.

(now if I could just find those Palmdale twin white F-117 photos...)

Am I the only one that thinks this is a model? The highlights and
surface textures look wrong. Maybe it's just because they were
blown up a lot.

Is it a real plane?

I have photos of white F-117a's at Palmdale from a magazine scan.
Looks like the last 3 digits of the tail number is 795 and 794. If
your email address is legit, I'll mail them if you want them.
