How can one Photoshop this F-86D image?

Whats with the black boxed area on the top of the nose of the Sabre Dog?

That's a camera for rocket-firing tests. There's other cameras as well on the nose and wings.

It can be restored to look like photo posted by Scott, but it is a lot of work, so it is worth to do only with high-res image.

 

[Steve Pace]

There is no high res available.

Mid quality, time effective retouch.

Thanks! Very nice. I believe the color is called dayglo red or dayglo orange...
