They flew the F-4J Phantoms until transitioning to the F-14D Tomcat in January 1992, eventually transitioning to the F/A-18 Hornet. They pioneered the use of the TARPS pod for reconnaissance missions and participated in the Lebanon and Syrian conflicts, the latter of which they were engaged by hostile AAA and missile fire.
