Official VAW-115 Liberty Bells Snapper Patch — Hawkeye Command and Control from Point Mugu
The Liberty Bells' Snapper birds ring out across the battlespace — commanding, controlling, and calling every shot.
Carrier Airborne Early Warning Squadron 115 (VAW-115), the Liberty Bells, operates the E-2D Advanced Hawkeye from NAS Point Mugu, California. This "Snapper" patch represents a specific aircraft or detachment within the squadron. VAW-115 provides airborne early warning, battle management, and command and control for the carrier strike group, using the E-2D's advanced AN/APY-9 radar and mission systems to detect threats, manage the battlespace, and coordinate the movements of every aircraft and ship in the battle group. The Liberty Bells are the eyes and brains of the carrier air wing, and the Snapper crews carry that responsibility on every mission.
Perfect For: VAW-115 Liberty Bells aircrew, E-2D Advanced Hawkeye enthusiasts, NAS Point Mugu personnel, carrier AEW community members, and Hawkeye mission patch collectors.
Liberty Bells ringing — Snapper sees everything.
