E-2/C-2 Hawkeye & COD Tailhook Prop Patch — US Navy Carrier Airborne Early Warning and Logistics Embroidered Patch
Prop jobs on the boat — the E-2 Hawkeye and C-2 Greyhound community.
The E-2 Hawkeye and C-2 Greyhound represent the carrier air wing's turboprop community — the airborne early warning and carrier onboard delivery (COD) aircraft that are essential to fleet operations but often overlooked in favor of the fighters. The E-2 Hawkeye provides airborne early warning, command and control, and battle management for the carrier strike group, directing fighters to targets and managing the air picture. The C-2 Greyhound was the fleet's logistics lifeline, delivering mail, parts, passengers, and priority cargo to carriers at sea. This Tailhook prop patch celebrates the unique community of naval aviators who fly turboprops off carrier decks.
Perfect For:
E-2 Hawkeye and C-2 Greyhound aircrew, VAW squadron personnel, VRC/VRM logistics aviators, Tailhook Association members, and Navy carrier turboprop community patch collectors.
Prop jobs. Eyes of the fleet. COD on the ball.
