Organisational changes saw 'A' Field Battery RAA allocated as an additional gun battery for the regiment's Operational Deployment Force structure (though it remained an independent battery operating in support of the 3 RAR parachute battalion group in Holsworthy). In addition to the disbandment of the Artillery Headquarters in each of the division (Headquarters Divisional Artillery), the regiments came under the full command of their affiliated brigades. The East Timor crisis in 1999 saw 'A' Fd Bty and 108 Fd Bty deploy as additional rifle companies (gunlines) and Civil-Military Liaison teams (Forward Observer parties) in the 3 RAR and 2 RAR battalion groups respectively, departing Australia on 20 September. The remainder of the unit was placed on notice (though not used) to evacuate Australians from Jakarta. Upon 1 RAR's rotation into East Timor post-transition, 107 Fd Bty deployed only their Battery Commander and Observer parties, leaving their gun line in Australia. It was not until 1 July 2002 that 'A' Fd Bty was formally allocated to the regiment as a sub unit.

The regiment was to raise Regimental Headquarters, a Headquarters Battery and 103rd Field Battery (Fd Bty) RAA, while 105th Fd Bty RAA was transferred from 1st Field Regiment RAA in Holsworthy, Sydney. Around this time, veterans from 2nd/4th Field Regiment AIF travelled from Melbourne, presenting gifts to the regiment and cementing the lineage between the two. With the continued rotation of individual batteries to the Commonwealth Brigade in Malaya, 101 Fd Bty RAA reverted to command of 4 Fd Regt; 103 Fd Bty having been sent to relieve them in October 1961.

On 18/19 May 1970, following the announcement of withdrawal of Australia troops from Vietnam, the 131 Div Loc Bty detachment ceased operating its two radars. From October 1970, large-scale troop withdrawals began, beginning with the departure (without replacement) of 8th Battalion, the Royal Australian Regiment. The handover to 12 Fd Regt began on 4 February 1971, with the regiment relinquishing control on 8 March. The remaining elements of the regiment (107 Fd Bty) returned to Australia on 7 May 1971.

The majority of 4 FAB's officers and non-commissioned officers were drawn from the descendent units of the St Kilda gunners from the 7th Field Artillery Brigade and some personnel from the 8th Field Artillery Brigade. The unit embarked two months later for Suez. Initially, the brigade consisted of three batteries – the 10th, 11th and 12th – but in Egypt it as reorganised to reflect the British artillery organisation of four batteries, and another battery – the 19th – was raised.

From 1922 to 1931, the unit underwent a number of changes in its title, including "4th Australian Field Artillery", "IV Australian Field Artillery Brigade", before finally being named "4th Field Regiment Royal Australian Artillery (Militia)" in 1936. A number of organisational changes accompanied budgetary constraints and wider Army structure changes. Despite these changes, the unit managed to achieve a standard of technical proficiency that would serve the artillery well in the coming war.

Further deployments and manoeuvres took place around Caboolture, Maryborough and Cabarlah. After the restructure of the Army's jungle divisions, the 4th Fd Regt RAA was moved to Helidon in July 1943, with orders to deploy to New Guinea received on 11 January 1944.
