History edit
On March 15, 1962 the squadron was formed at Komaki Air Base. It followed the 103rd Squadron. There was no 104th squadron formed because the JASDF had already decided to introduce the Lockheed F-104 Starfighter as the next interceptor.
It was disbanded on December 1, 1967, on the same day as fellow Komaki unit 102nd Squadron.[1]
