After 18 months it had the required 18 aircraft and in August 1967 it began Quick Reaction Alert flights. These continued until September 1972. Following the return of Okinawa Prefecture to Japanese control in 1972, the squadron relocated to Naha Air Base. In March 1986 it disbanded, the final F-104J unit to do so.
