In 1952 with Air Group 19 at NAS Moffett Field, the squadron transitioned to the jet age flying the McDonnell F2H-3 Banshee aboard USS Yorktown. From 1957 to 1963 the Ghostriders operated hte McDonnell F3H-3 Demon aboard USS Bon Homme Richard (CVA-31) and were awarded the Battle Efficiency "E" Award in 1960 and again in 1962.
In 1963 the Demon was replaced by the 2-seat McDonnell Douglas F-4B Phantom II and the command was re-designated VF-142. Between May 1964 and May 1968, the Ghostriders made 4 WestPac deployments, one in USS Ranger (CV-61) and the remainder in USS Constellation (CV-64). During these cruises, 2 MiG-21s, one MiG-17 and an An-2 Colt aircraft were downed by VF-142 crew members. The squadron was also awarded trhe COMNAVAIRPAC Battle Efficieny "E" Award. After transition from the F-4B to the newer F-4J aircraft, the Ghostriders once again deployed for WestPAC in USS Constellation on 11 August 1969. The squadron was awarded the Battle E Award in 1968-1969, and hte Naval Aviation Safety Award for 1969-1970. In June 1971, VF-142 deployed in USS Enterprise (CVN-65) for a sixth combat deployment to Vietnam.
September 1972 saw the Ghostriders deployed on their seventh and final combat deployment to Southeast Asia, again in USS Enterprise. MiGCAP and BarCAP missions were flown in support of the first B-52 strikes into the heart of North Vietnam prior to hte cease fire. During this combat deployment the Ghostriders downed another MiG-21, their fifth enemy aircraft, becoming the Navy's first ace squadron of the Vietnam War.
