Atlantic City International Airport: A Brief History Timeline

  • Naval Air Station Atlantic City was erected on 2,444 acres (9.89 km2) of privately leased land in Egg Harbor Township, New Jersey, in 1942. Its mission was to train fighter, bomber, and torpedo squadrons from various carrier air groups.
  • In August 1943, the mission of NAS Atlantic City was changed to solely fighter training, which included low and high altitude gunnery tactics, field carrier landing practise (FCLP), carrier qualifications (CQ), bombing, formation tactics, fighter direction, night operations, and a ground school curriculum.
  • During the 1960s and early 1970s, the active-duty U.S. Air Force's 95th Fighter-Interceptor Squadron, stationed at Dover AFB, Delaware, maintained an Operating Location and Alert Detachment of F-106 Delta Darts at Atlantic City ANGB on 24-hour alert. After the 177th Fighter Wing re-equipped with the F-106 in 1973, the 177th took on the air defence alert mission.
