History:
 
The Seabats were established on 2 September 1983 as part of the Reagan-era build-up to a 600-ship Navy (to include as many as 15 aircraft carrier battle groups (CVBG's). With the end of the Cold War and subsequent draw down of the Services, the Coral Sea/CVW-13 team was one of the first units to be decommissioned. VAW-127 followed shortly thereafter on 30 September 1991. In between, the Seabats participated in several noteworthy events to include Operation Eldorado Canyon, the strike conducted against Libya and operations in the Gulf of Sidra.
