In 1957, the 27th Fighter-Escort Wing was assigned to Bergstrom Air Force Base near Austin, Texas and at that time it was part of the Strategic Air Command. In the summer of 1957, it was re-named as the 27th Tactical Fighter Wing and transferred to the Tactical Air Command. In 1958, the 27th TFW was deactivated and transferred to Cannon Air Force Base which is just west of Clovis, New Mexico. The transfer did not involve the actual movement of any equipment or aircraft. Instead, the 312th Tactical Fighter Wing and the four squadrons of F-100 Super Sabre aircraft assigned to it were re-designated as the 27th TFW one day after the 27th had been de-activated at Bergstrom AFB. The 27th TFW was under the 832d Air Division. The four squadrons of the 312th TFW were then re-designated as the 481st, 522d, 523d, and 524th Tactical Fighter Squadrons. This was the beginning of the 481st Tactical Fighter Squadron.
