I am looking for the RAZBAM A-6 Intruder paintkit.
Was their any paintkit available in the past?
Does anyone have it?

Looks great Cees
I can't take credit for this one as it was already in the paintkit.

Yeah - I did it.
In posts awhile back I made this kit on my own so I had a VA-75 texture. I did a tanker (the belly bands were unique in all squadron KA-6Ds).
However, everything that is VA-75 can be removed or changed in the PK and no belly band and numbers 500 - 510 would be a bomber.
I have a few posts and threads on the A-6 somewhere here if interested.

Got to cruise with VA-75 in the air wing on the Big E. As the last Intruder cruise, they painted one jet up in early colors.
Mike 71 made it, I only put it on a plane. I'll make it public if Mike is okay with that.

Should there be stripes on the outer tanks?

Great photo that does the old girl justice!
A-6 squadrons normally had 10 bombers and 4 tankers. The KA-6Ds were old A-6As that had been converted through an overhaul and modification program. As a tanker they were terrific, with lots of give-away fuel capacity.
I have mentioned some time ago that Navy carrier based tankers had green anti-collision lights to make them easier to find at night. Even "straight" A-6Es or A-7s equipped with a refueling store - to serve as extra tankers - would have their anti-collision lenses swapped out to green temporarily.
No paint on the tanks. Once in awhile you see drop tanks on various Navy airplanes wih some painted trim, but that was / is an exception.
