In late 1975, Marine Strike Fighter squadron (VMFA) 112 Cowboys switched from F-8D/E Crusader to the F-4 Phantom II. On 18 January 1992, the squadron retired the last F-4S squadron in active service. The squadron transitioned to F/A-18A Hornet by October 1992. VMFA-112 moved from NAS Dallas (TX) to nearby NAS Fort Worth Joint Reserve Base (JRB) in September 1996. 155847 moved in July 1991 to MCAS Cherry Point (NC) for storage and by 2003 it was converted to QF-4S. By late 2003 was reported as dumped at San Nicolas Island (CA) and was officially removed from USN/USMC inventory.
