95th FIS

The 95th Fighter-Interceptor Squadron (95th FIS) was a United States Air Force unit with a distinguished history dating back to World War II. Activated in 1942, it initially served as a training and air defense unit before participating in combat operations in the European Theater, flying P-38 Lightnings. After the war, the squadron was re-designated and played a key role in continental air defense during the Cold War, operating advanced jet interceptors such as the F-86 Sabre, F-89 Scorpion, and F-106 Delta Dart. The 95th FIS was inactivated in 1969 as part of a broader restructuring of Air Defense Command forces.
