Argonauts on the hunt with the Super Hornet.
Strike Fighter Squadron 147 (VFA-147) "Argonauts" is a United States Navy F/A-18E Super Hornet squadron currently assigned to Carrier Air Wing Five (CVW-5) and forward-deployed to Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni, Japan. This shoulder patch features the Argonauts' identity paired with the F/A-18E Super Hornet, representing one of the Navy's most accomplished and storied strike fighter squadrons.
VFA-147 has a distinguished combat heritage spanning decades, from Vietnam to the Gulf War to the Global War on Terror. As part of the forward-deployed CVW-5, the Argonauts are permanently stationed in the Western Pacific, maintaining constant combat readiness to respond to any contingency in the Indo-Pacific theater. The single-seat F/A-18E Super Hornet is the backbone of Navy carrier aviation, providing multi-role capability across air-to-air combat, precision strike, close air support, and reconnaissance. The Argonauts' name draws from Greek mythology's legendary Jason and the Argonauts — adventurers who sailed into the unknown in pursuit of glory.
This shoulder patch identifies the warriors who carry the Argonaut spirit into the Pacific.
Perfect For: VFA-147 Argonauts veterans, F/A-18E Super Hornet pilots, CVW-5 collectors, MCAS Iwakuni aviators, and Navy strike fighter squadron enthusiasts.
