Tyndall Field as it was previously known was activated as a Usaac gunnery range in 1941. It was deactivated at the end of World War 2 and became a training airfield under Air Training Command. In 1948, the base was renamed Tyndall Air Force Base. In 1957, it came under the umbrella of Aerospace Defence Command which continued until the Adc was disbanded in 1979 and all units and bases were relocated un the Tactical Air Command. From the 1950's and into the 1960's the base operated such diverse types as the North American TF-51 Mustang, F-86F/F-86D Sabre, F-100 Super Sabre, McDonnell Douglas F-101 Voodoo, Convair F-102A/TF-102B Delta Dagger, Lockheed F-94 Starfire, T-33 Shooting Star and F-104 Starfighter, Northrop F-89 Scorpion, and Convair F-106A/B Delta Dart in the interceptor pilot training role. The base played a notable role in the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. In 1956, the base also became home to the 678th Aircraft Control & Warning Squadron
to support the 4751st Air Defence Wing (Air Defence Missile Wing from 1958), which was equipped with the Boeing CIM-10 Bomarc surface-to-air missile and based at Hurlburt Field, Florida. Tyndall continues as a major USAF training base to this day, and was the first USAF base to be equipped with the F-22 Raptor beginning with the 43rd Fs in 2002.
