55 F-106s were assigned the 95th FIS at two different locations: Andrews AFB MD from 17 July 1959 to 01 July 1963, and Dover AFB DE 01 July 1963 until inactivation on 31 Jan 1973.

The 95th FIS was transferred from SAC to ADC at Grenier AFB in August 1949 with F-51Ds.  It was, however, deactivated two months later in October.  In November 1952 the 95th FIS was reactivated at Andrews AFB with F-94Bs, replacing the 121st FIS of the District of Columbia ANG.  In 1953 it transitioned into F-86Ds and subsequently into F-86Ls in April 1957.  In February 1958 the squadron received F-102As.  It transitioned into F-106As in July 1959 and moved to Dover AFB in July 1963.  On 31 January 1973 the squadron was deactivated; however, the unit designation was reactivated at Tyndall AFB in September 1974 when the T-33 Flying Training Squadron was re-designated the 95th FITS.
