VT-27 is a primary training squadron of the United States Navy.

One of just five Navy primary training squadrons, VT-27 is one of two located on the Texas Coastal Bend.

It was there the squadron was redesignated VT-27 in July of that year and about that time that the Grumman S2F-1T Tracker was put into service as a multi-engine trainer.

In July 1964, the "Boomers" were returned to Naval Air Station, Corpus Christi where they continue to be an important part of the community.

In August 1983, the squadron took delivery of the first T-34C Turbo Mentor aircraft.
