After the momentous security failures by various existing Air National Guard squadrons during the 2010 Circum Pacific war, Many states demanded better means to counter threats than had been provided. At the same time the Osean Military was facing existing scrutiny and with massive cuts looming, OADF Command saw a way to keep units active, while - on paper- shrinking the overall size of the military.
In 2012, the 312th Fighter Squadron “Scorpions” was transferred from Active Duty with the 57th Fighter Wing to the Baja Cineloa Air Guard’s 164th Fighter Wing. Today, they assist in providing security to the State, and even saw a deployment during the 2019 Lighthouse War to help deter Erusean Aggression to Osea’s allies in the region.
In 2022, the Squadron received the first of its Have Glass V upgraded Block 50 F-16C’s and will be expected to start phasing out older jets by 2023.
