In 1973, VT–27 began a transition to the role of a Primary training squadron with the arrival on 1 August of the first T-28 Trojan. By 1 October 1973, the last Grumman TS-2A Tracker, had departed, signifying the end of the Advanced training role and the completion of the transition to Primary training. In August 1983, the squadron took delivery of the first T-34C Mentor aircraft. Since March 1984, when the last T-28 ever used for naval flight training departed, the T-34C was the mainstay of the Navy and Marine Corps Primary flight training program. Since early 2013, VT-27 began exclusive use of the T-6B for all primary flight training.
