VAH-6
VAH-6 remained at NAS North Island until relocating to Naval Air Station Whidbey Island, Washington in early 1958. In June 1958, VAH-6 reequipped with the Douglas A3D-2 Skywarrior and made several Western Pacific (WESTPAC) deployments aboard USS Ranger and Mediterranean deployments aboard USS Forrestal.[4] The squadron’s A3D-2 aircraft were redesignated as the A-3B Skywarrior in September 1962.

In 1965, the squadron relocated to Naval Air Station Sanford, Florida. In September 1965, the squadron completed transition to the RA-5C Vigilante and was redesignated as Reconnaissance Attack Squadron SIX (RVAH-6).[3][5]
