Official VFA-147 Argonauts F-35 Tail Flash Patch — Strike Fighter Squadron 147 Argonauts F-35C Lightning II Tail Flash Embroidered Patch

Argonauts tail flash — VFA-147's F-35C marking.

This VFA-147 "Argonauts" F-35C tail flash patch reproduces the distinctive tail art painted on VFA-147's F-35C Lightning II aircraft. Tail flash patches are among the most sought-after items in military aviation collecting because they capture the unique visual identity that makes each squadron's aircraft instantly recognizable.

VFA-147 operates the F-35C Lightning II from MCAS Iwakuni, Japan, as part of Carrier Air Wing 5 (CVW-5), making the Argonauts one of the first Navy squadrons to deploy the carrier-variant F-35 to the Western Pacific. The Argonauts' tail flash is the visual signature that appears on the vertical stabilizer of their F-35Cs, identifying every Argonauts jet as it launches from the carrier deck or flies over the Indo-Pacific. The F-35C represents the future of Navy carrier-based strike fighter aviation, and VFA-147 is leading the way in the 1st Marine Aircraft Wing and CVW-5's forward-deployed posture in Japan. This tail flash patch lets aviation enthusiasts display the Argonauts' F-35C marking.

This patch reproduces VFA-147's F-35C tail flash.

Perfect For: VFA-147 Argonauts personnel, F-35C Lightning II aviation fans, tail flash patch collectors, and CVW-5 forward-deployed squadron enthusiasts.
