On 26 September 1998, NAS Dallas was decommissioned and units were transferred to NAS JRB Fort Worth, the former Carswell AFB. NAS Dallas had several Skyhawks in service, assigned to the Operations Maintenance Detachment (OMD) in an adversary role, mainly in support of the Naval Air Reserve. The Skyhawks were instrumental in training and development of Air Combat Manoeuvring (ACM) for the NAS Dallas based VF-201 and VF-202, both Tomcat squadrons.
