I work on submarines and we need to specify exactly when and where the anti-seize goes. If we use anti-seize, we also need to specify a dry (no lube) and wet (lubed with anti-seize) torque. The dry torque is always higher than the wet torque.

Exactly my experience with F-16s. You don't use antiseize unless the tech data tells you to. If it does tell you to use it, the stated torque value takes the antiseize into account.
