Originally activated on December 20, 1943, at Marine Corps Air Station Quantico as Marine Observation Squadron 4 (VMO-4), the squadron trained on OY-1 Grasshopper light observation aircraft and deployed to the Pacific to support the V Amphibious Corps with the 4th Marine Division. VMO-4 flew into combat during the Battle of Saipan in June 1944, landing on the Charan-Kanoa airstrip while fighting was still underway, and went on to support operations at Tinian and then Iwo Jima — where their aircraft were among the first to land on the newly captured airfield under small-arms and mortar fire. The squadron's pilots flew low-altitude observation missions to direct artillery and naval gunfire onto Japanese positions, earning a Presidential Unit Citation for their actions at Saipan and Iwo Jima. After the war, VMO-4 was deactivated in 1945, reactivated as a reserve unit in 1962 flying helicopters and later OV-10 Broncos, and served until being deactivated again in 1993 during the post-Cold War drawdown. On July 1, 2010, the Evil Eyes returned when VMO-4 was reactivated and redesignated as VMU-4, becoming the fourth UAV squadron in the Marine Corps and the first in the reserve component. Operating the RQ-7B Shadow and later the RQ-21A Blackjack from Camp Pendleton, California, under Marine Aircraft Group 41 and the 4th Marine Aircraft Wing, VMU-4 provided reconnaissance, surveillance, and target acquisition for the Marine Air-Ground Task Force.

Commissioned on March 18, 1986, at Marine Corps Air Station Yuma, Arizona, VMFT-401 was created to fill a critical gap in Marine Corps readiness: providing dissimilar air combat training to active and reserve fleet squadrons so that American pilots would never face an unfamiliar threat in actual combat. The squadron's first aircraft were 13 Israeli-built F-21A Kfir fighters, delivered in June 1987 after contractual agreements with Israeli Aircraft Industries. The Kfir was officially inducted into Marine Corps service on August 13, 1987, and VMFA-235 'Death Angels' became the first unit to receive the Snipers' adversary support. Within their first year of operations, VMFT-401 flew over 4,000 accident-free sorties supporting 59 different units across 16 major exercises, earning a Meritorious Unit Commendation from the Secretary of the Navy. In 1988, the Snipers deployed to support the Air Force Fighter Weapons School at Nellis AFB, attended the Navy Fighter Weapons School — TOPGUN — at NAS Miramar, and provided Red Air for numerous combined arms exercises. In 1989, the squadron transitioned from the Kfir to the F-5E Tiger II, and later upgraded to the F-5N with improved avionics including the AN\/APG-69 pulse-doppler radar. The fruits of the Snipers' training were proven in combat when the United States went to war with Iraq in 1991 and American pilots handily defeated the Iraqi Air Force. By 1995, VMFT-401 had accumulated over 35,000 mishap-free sorties and 31,000 mishap-free flight hours, and by 2010 the squadron broke the 50,000 mishap-free flight hour mark — recognized personally by the Commandant of the Marine Corps. Assigned to the 4th Marine Aircraft Wing under Marine Aircraft Group 41, the Snipers are a non-deployable unit staffed with a mix of active-duty and reserve pilots — many of them airline pilots in their civilian careers — who average 2,500 hours in fighter aircraft and hold Top Gun or Weapons and Tactics Instructor qualifications. They routinely train Marine F\/A-18 and F-35 pilots, as well as Navy and Air Force units across the southwestern United States, and provide the majority of Red Air threats for the semiannual Weapons and Tactics Instructor course at MAWTS-1.
